REINFORCING STEEL: Reinforced concrete was designed on the principle that steel and concrete act together in resisting force. Concrete is strong in compression but weak in tension. The tensile strength is generally rated about 10 percent of the compression strength. Steel is the best material for reinforcing concrete because the properties of expansion for both steel and concrete are considered to be approximately the same; that is‚ under normal conditions‚ they will expand and contract at an almost

Competition from substitutes Increasing substitutes in the form of plastics‚ aluminum and advanced composites. 2. Threat of Entry High barriers to entry in the integrated mill segment. However‚ with the mini-mills‚ the barriers are being lowered due to lower costs (a tenth of those in the integrated mills per ton of steel produced). 3. Competition from rivals Highly competitive since products are

Most structural steel failures happen at connections....where a beam connects to a column‚ where a joist connects to a beam‚ where a hanging rod connects to a beam (the Kansas City Hyatt discussed above). The Structural Engineer must design the design the steel members and give guidelines for the connections. Many people in the Construction Industry don’t understand‚ though‚ that the Structural Engineer rarely designs the connections. Why is that? Historically‚ the Steel Fabricators developed

U.S. Steel industry. What conclusion can you draw from this? Degree of Rivalry: Mini mills were being used by the foreign competition which mean they were able to produce steel at less expensive rates passing that on ot their customers. Barriers to entry: Starting in the 1970’s since there were no trade barriers companies overseas were able to manufacture and sell steel for a much lower price here in the United States therefore affecting companies domestically. Supplier power: Once steel became

Coal – Energy Where are coal reserves? Surface mining and deep underground mining are the two basic methods of mining. Many coals extracted from both surface and underground mines require washing in a coal preparation plant. Coal Exploration - Coal reserves are discovered through exploration activities. The process usually involves creating a geological map of the area‚ then carrying out geochemical and geophysical surveys‚ followed by exploration drilling. This allows an accurate picture of
