FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Third Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of ‘Indian Standards, after the draft finalizedby the Foundry and Steel Casting Sectional Committee had been approved by the Metallurgical “EngineeringDivision Council.
This standard was first published in 1975 and subsequently revised in 1982 and 1984. While reviewing thestandard in the light of the experience gained during these years, the Committee decided that the standard maybe further revised. In this revision following modifications have been carried out
a) 5 new grades have been added in Table 1, and
b) Table 2, Table 3 and Table 4 have been modified.
Various clauses have also been aligned with the recent standards on steel castings.
In the preparation of this standard, assistance has been derived flom ASTM Designation: A 4871A487 M-93‘Steel castings suitable for pressure services’, issued by the American Society for Testing and Materials,
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with the final value,observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance withIS 2:1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical values (revise@’. The number of significant places retained in therounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.
