What is material S235JR equivalent ASTM steel

Material s235jr is low carbon, high tensile strength structural steel which can be readily welded to other weldable steel. With its low carbon equivalent, material S235JR possesses good cold-forming properties. S235JR steel plate is produced by fully killed steel process and supplied in normalized or controlled rolling condition. What is material S235JR equivalent ASTM steel? Let us check together.
