Steel Coils: Do You Know Cold Rolled Coils Made by ADTO GROUP?
The cold-rolled steel coils are manufactured from the hot rolled steel coils. The hot rolled steel coils are cleaned chemically and processed further in cold reduction mills, where the material is cooled (at room temperature) followed by annealing and/or tempers rolling. This process will produce steel with closer dimensional tolerances and a wider range of surface finishes. Cold rolling increases strength, enhances the surface finish and offers uniform thickness. To prevent the cold-rolled steel coils from rusting, they are usually coated with a thin layer of oil paint. Further coating of Zinc-Aluminium alloy or galvanization on the metal can be processed. ADTO GROUP offers cold rolled steel coils for sale in a range of international standard grades.

Do You Know the Difference between Metal Sheet, Plate, and Foil?
The difference between metal sheet, plate, and foil is the thickness of the metal, with foil being the thinnest and plate being the thickest, but the boundaries vary depending on who you are talking to and the material you are talking about.

Hot Rolled Steel: How it is Made
The process in which hot rolled is produced begins with heating slabs of steel to approximately 2,300 degrees Fahrenheit. The amount of heat directly affects the properties of the steel. Meaning, if the temperature is not high enough it can cause defects in the material. This is likely due to carbides (compound of carbon) and nitrates not fully dissolving. When the hot material is being transferred from the furnace it reacts with the oxygen in the air. This reaction forms a mill scale or a flaky surface of iron oxides. The mill scale can affect the surface quality of the hot rolled steel if left alone. To remove the iron oxides the material is then sent through a mill scale cleanse. It is sprayed with high-pressure water (much higher than your power washer at home).

Hot or Cold? Which Kind of Rolled Steel Should We Choose?
When approaching the start of our construction project, it is crucial to know the type of steel that is best suited for our needs. Different types of steel manufacturing can produce material that performs better for specific applications. The hot and cold rolled steel manufacturing methods specifically have a great effect on the overall performance of the steel.

Steel Coil Definition And Classification
Steel coil, a finished steel product such as sheet or strip which has been wound or coiled after rolling. In the light of experience gained during these years, ANSON classifies steel coils into hot and cold- rolled types, or stainless steel coil, carbon coil, and Galvanized Steel according to current products and international standards.

Do You Know Properties of Mild And Low Carbon Steel?
Mild steel is the least expensive of all steel and the most common steel used. Used in nearly every type of product created from steel, mild steel is weldable, very hard and, although it easily rusts, very durable. Containing less than 2 percent carbon, mild steel is able to be magnetized and used in almost any project that requires a vast amount of metal. The structural strength of mild steel prevents it from being used to create load-bearing girders and structural beams.

Do You Know Properties of High Carbon Steel?
High carbon steel is one of the most important construction metals in the world. While this is common knowledge, many people do not understand the difference between high carbon steel and other types of steel. Like any other specific type of steel, the high carbon version of this medal not only has specific properties unique to itself but also boasts both unique advantages and disadvantages when compared to other types of steel.

Do You know What Is Carbon Steel?
Steel is considered to be carbon steel when no minimum content is specified or required for chromium, cobalt, molybdenum, nickel, niobium, titanium, tungsten, vanadium or zirconium, or any other element to be added to obtain a desired alloying effect; when the specified minimum for copper does not exceed 0.40 percent; or when the maximum content specified for any of the following elements does not exceed the percentages noted: manganese 1.65, silicon 0.60, copper 0.60.

Scaffold Safety: How to Reduce Scaffolding Accidents?
According to the statistic, 72% of workers injured in scaffold accidents attributed the accident either to the planking or support giving way, or to the employee slipping or being struck by a falling object. Scaffolds are integral to the construction industry with approximately 65% of the workforce involved in work from scaffolds. When used properly, scaffolds can save significant time and money.

What Causes Scaffolding Collapses at Construction Sites?
Scaffolding is an integral part of many construction sites, elevating workers and materials during construction, maintenance, or repair projects. Unfortunately, when these structures fail, workers can sustain extremely serious injuries, including some that can result in permanent disabilities and long-term medical complications.

How Can We Prevent Scaffolding Collapse Happening?
scaffolding tends to offer a comfortable and safe working arrangement as compared to working from ladders, leaning over edges and stretching overhead. While on the other hand working at height itself is a big danger and working on scaffold enhances the risk to it especially when safety regulations are ignored. Scaffolding accidents mainly involve people falling, incorrect operating procedures, environmental conditions and falling materials due to equipment failure.

What Causes Scaffolding Collapse?
Scaffolding accidents mainly involve people falling, incorrect operating procedures, environmental conditions and falling materials due to equipment failure. The causes of scaffolding collapse include failures at attachment points, a parts failure, inadequate fall protection, improper construction or work rules, and changing environmental conditions (high winds, temperature extremes or the presence of toxic gases).
