Scope
GB/T 36171-2018 is the English-translated version of 改善成形性高强度结构用调质钢板.
GB/T 36171-2018 covers high-strength structural steel plate up to 50 mm thick, delivered in the quenched and tempered condition with improved formability. It sets out grade designation, ordering information, size, shape and weight, technical requirements, test methods, inspection rules, and packaging, marking and quality certificates.
The requirements include Charpy V-notch impact tests, with sub-size specimens for plates under 12 mm and no impact test below 6 mm, bend tests on thinned specimens above 30 mm, hardness testing by agreement, and surface quality rules under which defects may be removed to a depth of no more than half the thickness tolerance.
An informative annex compares its grades with those of related domestic and foreign standards. It was issued on 14 May 2018 and has applied since 1 February 2019.

6 Technical Requirements
6.4.3 When the thickness of the steel plate is less than 12mm, the Charpy (V-notch) impact test shall use a small-sized specimen. For the steel plate with thickness >8mm ~ < 12mm, the specimen size shall be 7.5mm × 10mm × 55mm; its test result shall be no less than 75% of the specified value in Table 2; for the steel plate with thickness 6mm ~ 8mm, the specimen size shall be 5mm × 10mm × 55mm; its test result shall be no less than 50% of the specified value in Table 2. The steel plate with thickness less than 6mm shall not perform the impact test.
6.4.4 When the thickness of the steel plate is greater than 30mm, the bend test shall use the thinning specimen; the size of an auxiliary specimen is to keep a rolling surface thinning to 30mm; the rolling surface is the outer curved surface during the test. After the bend test, the outer surface of the specimen shall be free of the visible cracks.
6.4.5 According to the demand of the purchaser, indicated in the contract, the supplier can perform the hardness test; the test type and specified hardness value shall be determined through the negotiation between the supplier and the purchaser.
