Besides, fr nomaloyed hat zhe-oaing steal sheets (GI) the conventional standard was fo lowed ‘Supplementary explanation ofthe revision items (1) New setting of high-tension grade ‘Since only @ mild steel sheet grade was set as a strength class in the conventional standard, steel types with tensile strength of 340, 370, 390 and 440 MPa class were added this time. Note, however, that 370 MPa class was set as 2 provisional grace, since 370 MPa class sieel had poor markeiabilly, and consid eration has been given so that I can be Used as ever as dura-sieel only when an order for it has been placed, Furthermore, a grade equivalent to SP761-40 (general-purpose coktolled high-tension steel of 440 Ma class) was newly set for cost reduction and weight saving in the future, although there were no ‘equivalent grades in dura-stee! in the past (On the other hand, 270 and 350 MPa class steel sheets were newly adopted as baking-hardened stee! sheets (50 called BH stee! sheets). '590 MPa class high-strength high-tension steel was excluded from the scope of revision, since itis stl ‘under development. (@ Standardization of the weights of coatings 1o be adopted inthe future ‘The minimum weight of coating to be adopted in the future was set at 45 g/m In consideration of mar- ketabilty to sacure the equivalent anticorosive performance to dura-steel. A minimum weight of 30 gm? was also set for future cost reduction. {@) Setting of casstication concerning epecife safety guideline corresponding o conventional du-stal and surface properties as major antcorosive sical shoots. ‘Sotting of elasstication concerning specife safety guideline corresponding to conventional dula-stool and surface properties as major antcorosive sical shoot.

Also, ‘hare was a need to set cifferent symbols from the symbols of conventional standards and Gl series 10 make clear the ciferences between symbols, because the mechanical properties of md steel shosts covered by convertional standards were changed. For Gi series steel sheets, no changes were made to the conventional symbol system to avoid confusion, because the conventional standards were not ro- Viewed. As 2 consequence, consistency of symbol system between GA series and Gl series was lost in ‘some dagree, Dut was decided to make the symbol systems consistent on the occasion ofa revision after symbols have become avaliable. (2) Provision of performance “The conventional dura-stool standard epocified that provisions of performanco should bo applied only at the time of approval for a manufacturing process. However, the items to be applied at the tme of approval for a manufacturing process wore limited to ease of conversion troatmant and ate of electrodopostion coating from the viewpoint of quelty assurence for production. For other performence related items, the determination ofthe practical test frequency was lef tothe discretion of parties concerned.

It was decided, however, not to classify them, since it daflacts from major point of global siandardization, 38.M2027 [2006-1] Here isthe annex when this Standard was revised in 1995, Purpose of revision “This Standard, which had been partelly revised in 1982, was revised again this time in keeping with the general revision of relevant NES standards The combinations of property and weight of coatings, surface treatment (chemical treatment specifica: tions), etc. were removed from this Standard from the viewpoint of reduction in the number of steel lypes, because they are not used current. On the occasion of the general revision of steel sheet standards including M2020, special consideration, ‘consistency of composition of texts, standard numbers and symbols among the standarcs was consid- ered as much as possible ‘At adoption ofthis Standard, ‘This Standard was establshed as standard thai can take charge on promoting the consolidation of steel types, as described in the “Supplementary explanation of each item ‘background to the setting of target Values” shown below.

However, each 3 steel types of cold-rolled steel sheets (NES M2020) and hot-relled mild cteel sheets (NES M2021) were set in combination of classification by formabilty and name in standards to maintein ‘consistency of steel type name. Although the last digit ofa standerd number was essigned fo classification by formatilty for products Using cold-clled steel sheets 2s original sheets, the numeral ! was assigned to steel sheets for general use, the numeral 2to steel sheets for drewning end the numeral 3 to steel sheets for deep drewning As a result of this, the standard numbers were reversed in relation to the conventional ones, but priority was given to consistency with cold-rolled mid steels (NES M2020) Also, for steel sheets using hot-rolled stee! sheets as orginal sheets, the numeral 6 was assigned to steel sheets for general use, the numeral 7 fo sieel sheets for crawning and the numeral 6 fo steet sheets for deep drawning by reasons of code system, although it was desirable to assion the last dit of a standard number to classification by formabiliy as withthe standard for hot rolled steel sheets (NES M2021).
