The chemical composition and mechanical properties of S355 are governed by EN Standards However, some projects may require materials that meet ASTM standards. ASTM has identified A572-50 as an acceptable substitution for S355. Both grades have similar chemical compositions and are high-strength, low-alloy structural steels.
S355 plate is used in specific projects that are based on European design and require materials that meet European standards. While this can include various industries, it is typically used in wind energy applications with the U.S.
