Import Tips
• Verify structural grade certifications like ASTM A992 to ensure compliance with building codes
• Provide mill test reports (MTRs) documenting chemical composition and mechanical properties
• Avoid misclassification as raw steel bars by highlighting structural preparation like welding holes
