FAMILIARIZATION OF VARIOUS
STRUCTURAL SHAPES
MATERIAL PROPERTIES REQUIRED PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF STEEL
FOR DESIGN The physical properties of steel
The properties that need to be
considered by designers when specifying include high strength, low weight,
steel construction products are: durability, ductility and resistance to
▪ Strength corrosion. Steel, as we all know, offers
▪ Toughness
great strength though it is light in
▪ Ductility
▪ Weldability weight. In fact, the ratio of strength to
▪ Durability weight for steel is the lowest than any
other building material available to us.
MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF ▪ high strength
STEEL
▪ low weight
▪ Condition
▪ Strength ▪ durability
▪ Hardness ▪ ductility
▪ Machinability ▪ resistance to corrosion
ROLLED STEEL SECTIONS
-a metal part produced by rolling and having any one of a
number
of cross-sectional shapes.
-distinctions are made between rolled sections with constant
transverse cross sections, variable sections, and special sections.
-are casted in continuous casting molds without any joints.
Different Forms of Rolled Steel
Sections
1. Rolled Angle Sections 8. Corrugated Sheets
2. Rolled Channel Sections 9. Expanded Metal
3. Rolled T- Sections 10. Rolled Steel Plates
4. Rolled I - Sections 11. Ribbed Bars (HYSD)
5. Rolled Round Bars 12. Ribbed Bars (Mild Steel)
6. Rolled Square Bars 13. Rolled Thermo-Mechanically Treated
7. Rolled Flat Bars (TMT) Bars
14. Welded Wire Fabrics

ROLLED STEEL SECTIONS
BUILT UP STEEL SECTIONS
- are comprised of other smaller members. Compare this
to rolled sections, which are formed into the shape directly.
Therefore, it was one whole member, as into the shape
directly.
