EPD: Hot-rolled sheet, 7800 kg/m3 (Nucor Steel, Gallatin plant)

Hot-rolled sheet steel are used in automotive, appliance, construction, pipe and tube and many other industrial and consumer applications. These products are flat-rolled to their final thickness by rolling at high temperatures on a hot-rolling mill. Hot-rolled sheet steel can then either be packaged and transported off site for distribution or be further processed in cold mills. Hot-rolled sheet in this EPD represent product manufactured in North America from steel product produced in North America. Hot-rolled sheet steel produced by Nucor are defined by the following steel standards: • American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) grades for: o Carbon Structural Steel (A36) o Electric-Fusion (Arc)-Welded Steel Pipe (NPS 4 and Over) (A139) o Electric-Resistance-Welded Carbon Steel and Carbon-Manganese Steel Boiler and Superheater Tubes (A178) o Welded and Seamless Steel Pipe Piles (A252); Steel, Sheet, Carbon, and High-Strength, Low-Alloy for Pressure Vessels (A414) o Cold-Formed Welded and Seamless Carbon Steel Structural Tubing in Rounds and Shapes (A500) o High-Strength Low-Alloy Columbian-Vanadium Structural Steel (A572) o High-Strength Low-Alloy Structural Steel, up to 50 ksi [345 MPa] Minimum Yield Point, with Atmospheric Corrosion Resistance (A588) o Steel, Sheet and Strip, High-Strength, Low-Alloy, Hot-Rolled and Cold-Rolled, with Improved Atmospheric Corrosion Resistance (A606); Structural Steel for Bridges (A709) o Hot-Rolled Carbon, Low-Alloy, High-Strength Low-Alloy, and Alloy Steel Floor Plates (A786) o High-Strength Low-Alloy Structural Steel Plate With Atmospheric Corrosion Resistance (A871) o Steel, Sheet and Strip, Hot-Rolled, Carbon, Structural, High-Strength Low-Alloy, High-Strength Low-Alloy with Improved Formability, and Ultra-High Strength (A1011) o Steel, Sheet and Strip, Heavy-Thickness Coils, Hot-Rolled, Carbon, Commercial, Drawing, Structural, High-Strength Low-Alloy, High-Strength Low-Alloy with Improved Formability, and Ultra-High Strength (A1018) • Coils for conversion to ASTM grades for Structural Quality plates (A6) and Pressure Vessel Quality plates (A20) • Coils for conversion to CSA G40.21 plates (CSA grades 38W, 38WT, 44W, 44WT, 50W, 50WT, 50A, 50AT, 60W, 60WT, 70W, 70WT) • Coils for conversion to API 5L Linepipe and API 5CT Casing • European Normative coil products covered by EN 10025 and EN 10149
