Importance of Iron as an engineering material
Importance of Iron. At room temperature, iron is in the form of ferrite, or α-iron, a body-centered cubic structure. The density of α-iron is 7.86 g/cc. At 910°C it changes to γ-iron, which is face-centered cubic and somewhat softer. At 1535°C iron melts, and boils at 3000°C .Cobalt melts at 1480°C, nickel at 1455°C.

Why do civil engineers use steel in construction? Why don ...
Answer (1 of 45): Steel, which has high tensile strength, is used with concrete in order to counteract the concrete's low tensile strength and ductility. The main purpose of inclusion of steel is resist tensile stress in particular regions of the concrete that

18 Different Uses of Steels - Civil Engineering
Steel is world’s most important engineering and construction material. It composites of- iron, carbon other elements. Iron is the base of steel. Though steel is harder and stronger than iron. It possesses high tensile strength, super flexibility, and low cost. Producing one ton of steel requires 40% of the energy. Steel is widely used in different sectors.

Cast Iron as a Building Material- Types, Properties and Uses
Pig iron is nothing but impure iron which is obtained from the iron ore. Cast iron has lot of engineering properties so, that it can be used in many ways like for sanitary fittings, rail chairs, casting molds etc. Manufacturing of Cast Iron Cast iron in manufactured from re-melting process as mentioned above.

History of Civil Engineering and Architecture
However, in the middle of the 18th century, iron became cheaper and more readily available. The first iron bridge was built over the Servern in 1779. A new blast furnace nearby lowered the cost and encouraged local engineers and architects to use iron to cross the river. The use of iron allowed longer spans and lighter structures.

William Fairbairn - Wikipedia
Fairbairn was a lifelong learner and joined the Institution of Civil Engineers in 1830. In the 1820s and 30s, he and Eaton Hodgkinson conducted a search for an optimal cross section for iron beams.They designed, for example, the bridge over Water Street for the Liverpool and Manchester Railway, which opened in 1830.In the 1840s, when Robert Stephenson, the son of

Cast Iron - an overview ScienceDirect Topics
Publisher Summary. The term ‘ cast iron ’ covers a family of ferrous alloys. It is an iron alloy that contains more than 2% carbon, and silicon in the range 1 to 3%. The extent of alloying and associated control of the heat and cooling process can give a very wide variety of properties to different grades of cast iron.
