255 transcript. Steel for building structures C255

Steel grade C225 is used for the production of sheet and profile metal products intended for installation and assembly of critical metal structures with bolted, riveted, welded and seam connections. The brand is most popular and in demand in the construction industry, which has no restrictions when performing welding work.

Decoding steel C255

Marking C means that this steel is intended for use in construction, and the number 255 determines the yield strength of the finished steel in N/mm 2. It is applied to the metal surface with yellow insoluble paint.

GOST

Requirements for metal must comply with GOST 27772-88, which defines technical specifications for the production of rolled products for metal structures in construction. In accordance with the state standard, the following are made from steel C255: angles, I-beams, channels, bent profiles of various configurations, as well as smooth and corrugated metal sheets. The cross-sectional thickness of rolled elements cannot be more than 30 mm and less than 4 mm.

Compound

The mass fraction of the elements that make up this steel is given in the table of the state standard:

  • about 97% iron (Fe);
  • 0.22% carbon (C);
  • 0.65% manganese (Mn);
  • 0.15-0.3% silicon (Si);
  • 0.3% chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni) and copper (Cu);
  • 0.2% aluminum (Al);
  • 0.05% sulfur (S);
  • 0.04% phosphorus (P).

When using ores from individual deposits, an increased manganese content of 0.2% and the presence of arsenic are allowed, but not more than 0.12%.

Analogues of steel C255

Based on the chemical composition and mechanical properties, the state standard defines the following domestic brands as analogues of C255:

  • VSt3sp5, VSt3ps5 and VSt3ps6;
  • St3Gps and St3Gsp;
  • 18sp, 18Gps and 18Gsp.

  • Fe 360-C (E 235-C)
  • Fe 360-D (E 235-D).

Types of processing and application

The amount of carbon and alloying additives in the chemical composition of C255 steel allows the use of any types of welding to connect parts and structural elements. Thermal, laser, hydraulic and mechanical processing technologies can be used for cutting rolled products and cutting sheets. It is noted that drilling, milling and threading are quite simple.

In construction, rolled steel C255 is used for the installation of metal structures of group 1, which includes welded elements designed to work in particularly difficult conditions. Including under vibration, dynamic and moving loads. The first group includes structural elements of bridge spans, supports for power lines, crane beams, load-bearing trusses, overpasses, stairs and others.

It is allowed to use rolled steel grades in other types of industrial production except construction. For example, for the manufacture of housings and load-bearing elements in mechanical engineering.

Brand: C255
Class: Steel for building structures
Use in industry: production of rolled products intended for building steel structures with welded and other connections
Weldability of the material: without restrictions.

Steel grade C255 is one of the most popular and in demand in the construction industry, as it is endowed with excellent strength characteristics and has no restrictions in weldability. It is supplied to sites in the form of rolled products (including shaped pieces) for subsequent use as part of all kinds of metal structures (connection - welding or any other).

Application of steel grade C255

Builders distinguish 4 groups of building metal structures, classified according to the degree of their responsibility and the conditions of their operation. The most demanding is the first group, which includes welded structures forced to work in particularly difficult conditions, including those exposed to fairly large vibration, dynamic and moving loads. In this case, it is allowed to use only the steel grade C255 we are considering, as well as C285, C345 or C375.


The first group includes such structures as elements of bridge spans, power transmission line supports, crane beams, unloading and bunker overpasses, transport galleries, trusses, etc.

Construction steel grades - analogues and replacement

One of the important characteristics of construction rolled steel 3 is its resistance to brittle fracture. To confirm these properties, samples of steel sheets undergo impact bending tests at decreasing temperatures.

The level of resistance to brittle fracture of rolled sheets in accordance with GOST 27772 is guaranteed by the required value of impact strength (KCU - when tested for impact bending with a U concentrator). For steels smelted according to EN standards, this value is the fracture coefficient (KV).
