Structural Steels

 

Understanding Structural Steels

Structural steels are specially formulated carbon-manganese alloys used in construction and engineering projects where strength, durability, and weldability are critical. At Liyou Steel, we supply high-quality structural steels that meet international standards for buildings, bridges, and industrial facilities.

Structural Steels: The Complete Guide to Grades, Properties & Applications

Types of Structural Steels

1. By Strength Grade

Grade Category Yield Strength Common Standards
Mild Steel 235-275 MPa Q235, A36, S235
Medium Strength 355-390 MPa Q355, A572, S355
High Strength 460-690 MPa Q460, A913, S460

2. By Chemical Composition

  • Carbon Steels (Q series, ASTM A36)

  • High-Strength Low-Alloy (HSLA) (ASTM A572)

  • Weathering Steels (Q355NH, ASTM A588)

  • Quenched & Tempered (ASTM A514)


Key Properties of Structural Steels

✔ Tensile Strength: 370-900 MPa
✔ Elongation: 18-25% (ensures ductility)
✔ Impact Resistance: Tested at -20°C to -40°C
✔ Weldability: Controlled carbon equivalents (CEV < 0.45)

Comparison Table: Popular Structural Steels

Standard Equivalent Grades Key Application
GB Q235, Q355, Q460 Chinese projects
ASTM A36, A572, A992 US/North America
EN S235, S355, S460 European markets
JIS SS400, SM490 Japanese standards
