The basic material properties of a rolled steel for welded structure (present standard name is SM400B, old standard name SM41B) which is used as the liner plate in SHTS cells of "Monju plant". Based on the material testing data for evaluation of structural integity of the liner during sodium leakage are tentatively proposed. Main basic material properties are shown as follows. (1)The 0.2% offset yield stress (lower yield point). (2)The ultimate tensile strength. (3)The modulus of the longitudinal elasticity. (4)Static stress-strain relation. (Physical property in Ludwik equation). (5)The creep strain. (6)The linear thermal expansion coefficient. (7)The density. (8)A specific heat. (9)The thermal conductivity.
