Copper is one of the oldest and most important metals ever used by man. Its malleability and ductility have seen it be used a wide range of applications and the fact that is can be recycled safety, makes it a very important material in modern society. This essay looks at the ......
Standard for Structural Steel Structures
Structural steel is one of the most widely used and important materials in many modern construction projects. Structural steel is strong and durable, and is used to form the skeleton of industrial and commercial buildings, as well as other structures. As s......
International Standards for Casting
Casting is a manufacturing process in which a material, typically metal, is heated by means of a furnace and then poured into a mold or die. The heated material is then cooled and solidified in order to produce parts with desired shapes. Casting is a versatile a......
Japan Iron and Steel Scrap Classification Standard (JIS G2401)
Japan Iron and Steel Scrap Classification Standard (JIS G2401) was established to classify the scrap steel product used in iron and steel production. According to the standard, the scrap steel products should be divided into three main......
Welding process is a method of joining two or more metal parts by using heat and pressure.Heat generated by electric arc, resistance or other process melts the two parts and fuses them together, and then applying pressure joins them together. Compared to other joining processes, welding is general......
