IS 2062:2011 (Hot Rolled Medium and High Tensile Structural Steel): covers plates, sections, bars, tubes for structural use. Grades: E 250 (Fe 410-W, old Fe 250), E 300, E 350, E 410, E 450, E 550. E = guaranteed yield strength in MPa. Subgrades A (no impact), B (0°C impact), C (−20°C impact). IS 2062 is the primary structural steel standard in India used with IS 800.
