Standard Specification for Carbon-Steel Wire and Welded Wire Reinforcement, Plain and Deformed, for Concrete

ABSTRACT
This specification covers the material, dimensional and mechanical property requirements for plain and deformed steel wire and welded wire reinforcements produced from hot-rolled rods that are to be used for the reinforcement of concrete. Tension test procedures are detailed for each type of wire reinforcement to examine their adherence to specified tensile strength, yield strength, and reduction of area requirements.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers carbon-steel wire and welded wire reinforcement produced from hot-rolled rod to be used for the reinforcement of concrete. The steel wire is cold-worked, drawn or rolled, plain (non-deformed, as-drawn or galvanized), or deformed. Welded wire reinforcement is made from plain or deformed wire, or a combination of plain and deformed wire. Common wire sizes and dimensions are given in Table 1, Table 2, Table 3, and Table 4. Actual wire sizes are not restricted to those shown in the tables. (A) Table 1 should be used on projects that are designed using inch-pound units; Table 2 should be used on projects that are designed using SI units.(B) The number following the prefix indicates the nominal cross-sectional area of the wire in square inches multiplied by 100.(C) For sizes other than those shown above, the Size Number shall be the number of one hundredth of a square inch in the nominal area of the wire cross section, prefixed by the W.(D) These sizes represent the most readily available sizes in the welded wire reinforcement industry. Other wire sizes are available and many manufactures can produce them in 0.0015 in.2 increments.(E) The nominal diameter is based on the nominal area of the wire.  (A) The wire sizes in Table 1 should be used on projects that are designed using inch-pound units; the wire sizes in Table 2 should be used on projects that are designed using SI units.(B) The number following the prefix indicates the nominal cross-sectional area of the wire in square milimetres.(C) For sizes other than those shown above, the Size Number shall be the number of square millimetres in the nominal area of the wire cross section, prefixed by the MW.(D) These sizes represent the most readily available sizes in the welded wire reinforcement industry. Other wire sizes are available and many manufactures can produce them in 1 mm2 increments.(E) The nominal diameter is based on the nominal area of the wire.  (A) The wire sizes in Table 3 should be used on projects that are designed using inch-pound units; the wire sizes in Table 4 should be used on projects that are designed using SI units.(B) The number following the prefix indicates the nominal cross-sectional area of the deformed wire in square inches multiplied by 100.(C) For sizes other than those shown above, the Size Number shall be the number of one hundredths of a square inch in the nominal area of the deformed wire cross section, prefixed by the D.(D) These sizes represent the most readily available sizes in the welded wire reinforcement industry. Other wire sizes are available and many manufacturers can produce them in 0.0015 in.2 increments.(E) The nominal diameter of a deformed wire is equivalent to the nominal diameter of a plain wire having the same weight per foot as the deformed wire.(F) The cross-sectional area is based on the weight of the wire. The area in square inches may be calculated by dividing the weight in pounds by 0.2833 (weight of 1 in.3 of steel) or by dividing the weight per lineal foot of specimen in pounds by 3.4 (weight of steel 1 in. square and 1 foot long).(G) Measurements shall be made as described in 7.2.4.7.(H) See 7.2.4.3 for average number of deformations per unit length.  (A) The wire sizes in Table 3 should be used on projects that are designed using inch-pound units; the wire sizes in Table 4 should be used on projects that are designed using SI units.(B) The number following the prefix indicates the nominal cross-sectional area of the deformed wire in square millim...

1.2 The values stated in either inch-pound or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text the SI units are
shown in brackets (except in Table 2 and Table 4). The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each
