ASTM F1554

View: 417

ASTM F1554
Scope
The ASTM F1554 specification was introduced in 1994 and covers anchor bolts designed to anchor structural supports to concrete foundations. F1554 anchor bolts can take the form of either headed bolts, straight rods, or bent anchor bolts. The three grades 36, 55, and 105 designate the minimum yield strength (ksi) of the anchor bolt. The bolts can be either cut or roll threaded and a weldable grade 55 can be substituted for grade 36 at the supplier’s option. Color coding on the end - 36 blue, 55 yellow, and 105 red – helps facilitate easy identification in the field. Permanent manufacturer and grade marking is allowed under the S2 supplementary requirements.
Applications for F1554 anchor bolts include columns in structural steel framed buildings, traffic signal and street lighting poles, and overhead highway sign structures to name just a few.

  • Stamping of F1554 bolts with manufacturer's identification is a supplemental requirement (S2)
  • Color coding is required unless the grade is stamped in accordance with supplemental requirement (S3).
  • When Grade 36 is specified, a weldable Grade 55 may be furnished at the supplier's option.
