The iron and steel industry is currently on an upsurge because of strong global and local demands. It plays a critical role in the infrastructural and overall economic development of a country. The versatility of steel can be understood from its wide range of applications in the construction, transportation, and process industries. There has been a remarkable growth in world crude steel production, from 189 million metric tons in 1950 to 1244 million metric tons in 2006 (International Iron and Steel Institute, IISI). However, the steel production process is an energy-, raw-material, and labor-intensive process, accounting for major environmental releases.17...

National standards. British Standards, DIN (Deutsche Industries Normung, from Germany) and ASTM/AISI (American Society for Testing of Materials/American Iron and Steel Institute) are those in most common use for metallic materials. It is always preferable to select a material for which national or international specifications exist. Many materials, including steels and the...

The wide variety of standards for steels which have developed from national standards and efforts of international standardization are compiled in [1.81]. In the present section we are using different standard designations as provided by the sources used. In the following sections, the SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers), AISI (American Iron and Steel Institute), and UNS (Unified Numbering System) designations are the dominating ones.
