AWS E90C-B3 vs. ASTM Grade HP Steel

Both AWS E90C-B3 and ASTM grade HP steel are iron alloys. They have a modest 40% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 26 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (6, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is AWS E90C-B3 and the bottom bar is ASTM grade HP steel.
