The document summarizes the results of tension tests performed on mild steel bars according to ASTM A615M standards. Three steel bars with a nominal diameter of 20mm were tested in each of three separate tests conducted on different dates in 2017 and 2018. The tests measured properties including actual diameter, weight, yield load, yield strength, ultimate load, ultimate strength, elongation and reported values in comparison to the minimum ASTM requirements. In each test, the yield and ultimate strengths and elongations of the steel bars were found to meet or exceed the ASTM grade 60 specifications.
