Steel is the most important engineering and construction material in the world, which is closely related to our lives. From cars, buildings, refrigerators, washing machines, cargo ships to scalpels, steel is everywhere.
1.What is the steel?
Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon, containing less than 2% carbon and 1% manganese and small amounts of silicon, phosphorus, sulfur and oxygen.
2.How is steel made？
There are two main steel making processes widely used in the world: blast-oxygen top blown converter and electric arc furnace. There are also a combination of the two steel making processes or other methods.

3.How many kinds of steel are there?
There are more than 3,500 different types of steel with different physical, chemical and environmental properties.If the Eiffel Tower were rebuilt today, engineers would use only a third of the steel.
