2. Structural steels
2.1 General information. Definitions
Among the various materials used in construction, steel plays an increasingly important role in the construction of structures (buildings, engineering structures, etc.)
The steel products encountered belong to three main families:
flat and long rolled products (buildings, bridges, dams);
active reinforcement (prestressed concrete) and passive reinforcement (high bond for reinforced concrete) ;
superstructure equipment (guardrails, lighting, vertical signs, etc.).
Steel is a material in which iron is the...
