High performance Weathering Steel (HSB-W)
Introduction
High Performance Weathering Steel for Bridges (HSB-W)
- Low alloy steel(Cu, Cr, Ni) at atmospheric environment fine adherent protective rust
forms on steel surface that inhibits further corrosion
- High performance as HSB (low temp. toughness, weldability etc.)
