Anchor bolts are provided in three grades (36, 55, 105).. For ASTM F1554 Grade 36, the standard specifies Tensile Strength (58-80 ksi), Minimum Yield Strength (36 ksi) and Size range (1/4 - 4 inch). For the size range, it gives the Nominal diameter, Body Diameter and Threads per Inch in increments of 1/8 inch.

In General, the Standard Specifies the Method of Manufactuturing, the Material for each grade, Specifications for protective coatings, Chemical Composition for each grade, Mechanical properties like Tensile Strength, Yield strength, elongation; Bolt Dimensions ( Nominal Diameter, Body Diameter, Bend Section and bend angle, Length, Coated Length), Thread Dimensions ( Nominal Size and Threads per inch) and Inspection & Markng Requirements.
