There is so much we need to
understand in this world for us to realize how certain objects, equipments or
applications come to be. When we think of industrial buildings or even down to
the tiny little components of the laptop we use on a daily basis, the interplay
of various scrap metals and structural steel are in place.
When we say non-ferrous metals,
these normally refer to materials or metals that are the opposite of ferrous
metals meaning it does not contain any iron, or at least it contains substantially
less iron components. What is beneficial to the use of non-ferrous metals is
that these are highly recyclable, and more often than not, form part of a lot
of technologies and computers we use today. Non-ferrous metals include copper,
aluminum, zinc, nickel, lead, chromium, titanium, and more. These are mostly
used for wiring applications, and that said, these non-ferrous metals are
highly in demand with the continuous development of all sorts of equipment and
technologies we use today.
On the other hand, structural steel
is used in the construction of buildings and other industrial projects. With
structural steel to form part of the main building stabilizers, then we are easily
in for a lot of accidents and disasters whenever natural calamities strike. Examples
of structural steel include API pipes and steel plates in various shapes and
sizes such as beams, channels, and angles. Since these structural steel
materials are essential in every construction project, states and countries
have different standards and regulations in terms of the shape, size, weight,
and composition of these materials. These regulations are stringent rules in
order to ensure that buildings that are about to be built are guaranteed not to
shake or withdraw from the land it is being built on in case of earthquakes and
natural catastrophic events.
