Steel Frame Construction Advantages and Disadvantages

History of Iron and Steel Making n n Prior to the mid 19 th century steel a very rare and valuable commodity Development of the Bessemer Process Discovery of iron ore Today, more than 20% of all steel production is used in building construction

Iron and Steel Making n n n A refining process 1 st , iron extracted from iron ore 2 nd , carbon rich iron production 3 rd , reduce carbon content in steelmaking Add alloying elements


Foundry Production n n (small percent) Adding scrape metal reduces carbon content White cast iron Gray cast iron (graphite flakes) Malleable cast iron (annealing) Ornamental wrought iron (97% pure)

Steel Making n n n (a further refinement) Steel making process (lower the carbon content) Control impurities (residual elements) Add allowing elements Electric furnaces Open hearth furnaces Basic oxygen furnaces


Mild Structural Steel n n ASTM A 36 (predominant for decades) ASTM A 572 and A 992 (less expensive and stronger)

High Strength Low Alloy Steels

High Alloy-Stainless Steel n n n 18/8 Stainless 18% chrome 8% nickel

Steel Finishes n n n Texture Galvanizing (zinc) Aluminizing Cladding Vitreous Coatings (porcelain enamels)

Structural Steel Shapes



Open-Web Steel Joist n n K Series (span to 60 feet, depths 8 to 30 inches) LH Series (span to 96 feet, depths 18 to 48 inches) DLH Series (span 144 feet, depths 52 to 72 inches) Joist Girders
