Steel’s legacy through human history has made long-lasting impacts on nearly every sector of our modern lives. The Iron Age Steel is one of the oldest documented materials used by humankind. Nearly 4,000 years ago was the beginning of the era now known as the Iron Age. Previously, many people were using bronze, but considering...
Innovative plans are underway to reduce the environmental impact. Decarbonization refers to the process of reducing carbon in the atmosphere.
Cryogenic piping is used to transport substances that have an extremely low temperature. The pipes must be able to withstand extreme changes in the liquids or gasses as they shift forms or thermal states. Cryogenic pipes are unique because they must be created with much higher quality materials, valves, and insulation than everyday pipes.
In the 1800s, the United States began a revolution on the framework of the country. Bridges, buildings, piping, and transportation all became privy to the innovations of steel.
America boasts some of the greatest steel structures and engineering in the world. Here are the 5 most popular American steel structures.
All steel is not created equal. There are several different types of steel, including carbon steel, steel alloys, and stainless steel. Each of these have uses in different applications, and they are rated based on that application. Grading stainless steel falls to two different (and completely separate) organizations depending on how the steel will be...
The fact that railway tracks can be reused in a number of ways might be a surprise to some, but those who understand the critical role that steel has played in the development of railroad track know that this is some of the strongest steel available.
