Application scope

The CCS (China Classification Society) Material and Welding Specification is a standard that specifies the material and welding requirements for structural steel plates used in ships. The specifications include grades A, B, D, and E for ordinary strength and grades AH to FH for high strength. The specification stipulates requirements for composition, tensile strength, and low-temperature impact resistance, emphasizing good weldability and low-temperature toughness. Delivered steel plates must be approved by the relevant classification society or system and are applicable to the load-bearing structures of ships.

Typical applications

Widely used in load-bearing components of CCS-classed inland waterway and ocean-going vessels, including hull structures, decks, bulkheads, and marine engineering structures. The standard strength grade is used for conventional hulls, while the high-strength grade is used in high-stress and weight-reduction zones. With its excellent weldability and low-temperature toughness, it is suitable for various ship and marine equipment structures that rely primarily on welding and must meet the classification requirements of the China Classification Society.
