Use of High Strength Structural Steels: Effects on fabrication, erection, and your quality [QC18] 2024

Utilizing higher-strength steel (65 ksi, 70 ksi, etc.) can save on the weight of the structures but can also create additional pre-heat and post-heat requirements, as well as require a change in welding consumables, procedures, etc., which can have both cost and schedule impacts outside of the simple tonnage savings. While there is typically a net cost savings, it is not a straight-line correlation. This session will review all these different variables to keep you ahead of the game!
