En 10025

EN 10025: 2004 is the new European standard for structural steel.
The following explains new grades, properties and

nearest
equivalent grades from former standards including EN 10025: 1993. The grade designation system is also explained.
History of the standard
The European Committee for Iron and Steel Standardisation is responsible for producing the European Standards (ENs)
for structural steels. The first of these standards, EN 10025: 1990, partly superseding BS 4360: 1986, which was
reissued as
BS 4360: 1990.
In 1993, a second edition of EN 10025 was made available together with EN 10113: Parts 1, 2 & 3 and EN 10155. In
June 1994,
EN 10210: Part 1 was published and at the same time BS 4360 was officially withdrawn. The balance of the BS 4360
steels not
affected by these ENs were re-issued in new British Standards BS 7613 and BS 7668. In 1996, with the publication of
EN 10137,
BS 7613 was withdrawn. BS 7668 will remain until an EN for atmospheric corrosion resistant hollow sections is
available. In
2004 the standard EN 10025 was revised to address the provisions of EU Construction Products Directive
(89/106/EEC). It is
now published in six parts to bring together almost all the Structural Metallic Products into one comprehensive
standard.
The new standard EN 10025: 2004
The new standard is published in six parts and draws together earlier standards to produce one standard for the
majority of
structural steel products. The parts are:
Part 1 General technical delivery conditions.
Part 2 Technical delivery conditions for non-alloy structural steels.
Supersedes EN 10025: 1993
Part 3 Technical delivery conditions for normalised/normalized rolled weldable fine grain structural steels.
Supersedes EN 10113: Parts 1 & 2: 1993
Part 4 Technical delivery conditions for thermomechanically rolled weldable fine grain structural steels.
Part 5 Technical delivery conditions for structural steels with improved atmospheric corrosion resistance also known
as weathering steels.
Supersedes EN 10155: 1993
Part 6 Technical delivery conditions for flat products of high yield strength structural steel in the quenched and
tempered
condition.
The designation systems used in the new standard are similar but not identical to EN 10025: 1993 and very different to
the
familiar BS 4360 designations so the guide below has been prepared to assist purchasers, specifiers, designers and
users of steel.
