Corten A242 steel is under ASTM A242, the standard specification for carbon and low alloy and high strength structural steel plate. The ASTM A242 specification covers high strength steel profiles, plates and bars for welded, riveted, or bolted constructions. Corten A242 steel is usually used to save the weight or increase the durability in steel constructions.
