High strength structural steel plate
• S355 – a structural grade steel with a minimum yield strength of 355 N/mm² whic
h widely used
in the engineering and construction industries, S355 offers high yield and tensile
strength and is supplied with a variety of treatments and test options to ensure it
is a highly usable steel in your various projects.
• G3 and N symbol for normalized.
• S symbol for Structural Steel
• J2 symbol -20 temperature impact test
Fe-C phase diagram
• The Fe-C (iron-carbon diagram) helps us to understand the phases in
steel
• Important Concepts to understand are:
• This is an “Equilibrium” diagram
• “Steels & Irons” – a clear distinction
• “Phase fields” & “reactions”
• “Critical temperatures”
