The correct choice of billet type, section shape, size and weight are of great significance to A573 grade 70 plate steel rolling production. Steel rolling production has certain technical requirements for raw materials, such as steel type, section shape, size, weight, and surface quality. The consideration of these technical requirements is necessary to ensure the quality of steel. It should also be specifically considered when determining and selecting the blank. The A573 grade 70 plate rolling method can be divided into cold rolling and hot rolling according to the rolling temperature.

In 2019, A573 grade 70 plate, crude steel production in North America was 120 million tons, down 0.8% year-on-year, among which crude steel production in the United States in 2019 was 87.9 million tons, up 1.5% year-on-year. The crude steel output of the CIS countries in 2019 was 100.4 million tons, down 0.5% year on year.
The addition of Ca element in steel such as A573 grade 70 plate can refine grain size, partly desulphurize and change the composition, quantity and morphology of non-metallic inclusions. It is similar to that of adding rare earth in steel. It can improve the corrosion resistance, wear resistance, high temperature and low temperature resistance of steel, improve the impact toughness, fatigue strength, plasticity and welding performance of the steel, and increase the cold heading, shock resistance, hardness and contact endurance strength of the steel.
