Short historical review
Iron extraction was made for millenniums
inside partially linked-land ovens, and was
fed with bellows, (Catalan method). The
result was a doughy, fluffy, full of impurity
iron-mass. This impurity was eliminated
just by means of a patient work of cocky
(forging).
The product achieved, called forged iron is
characterized by modest mechanics
properties and it’s possible to weld it by
boiling, that means heating up the pieces
to join, and then link those ones
vigorously, by mean of hammer beating

•A major boost of metallic construction sector,
was developed during the industrial revolution
from the lasts decades of 18th century.
•In 1874 in England, Henry Coart introduced a
different kind of oven (reflective oven) inside
which the uncarburation of cast-iron is made by
mean of a manual and constant mixing, aimed to
favor the contact between the fused material
with an air current. The achieved product was
doughy (puddled iron) So then, it was forged by
hand aimed to clean impurities. The quality was
improved subsequently in the lamination
process, obtained with cylinders without
channels to achieve sheets and products of
hollow or I-Shaped section.

•Others improvements on the iron and steel
industry were introduced from the second half of
the 19th century. In 1856, on the occasion of the
British Society Congress to the Science
Progress, the official new of a complete system
of fast cast-iron - Steel transformation was
confirmed. (Work of the English man Henry
Bessmer). The idea was very innovative: To
blow up air directly into the fused cast iron ,
aimed to the oxygen contained on the air
could be mixed with a great part of the
present carbon on the fused material,
eliminating under the form of oxide of

•The first important and documented
use of structural’s elements of cast-iron
can be found from the lasts decades of
18th century in bridges and buildings. A
relevant example is the cast-iron
bridge over the Severn river (30 Km
to Birmingham, Uk), with an arc
typology, building during 1775 and
1779. The structure is made up of 5
sharp arcs, in 30 meters span, each of
one compounded by two parts of 21
meters long and joined in keystone
without any specific joint mechanism,
exactly at the half of the arc.

building of seven floors in Manchester (U.K.)

•At the end of the first half of 18th century, the

Carbon increases resistance but reduces appreciably weld-ability and
ductility.
Among the elements which are not eliminated in the production process,
one can cite:
The Phosphorus and the sulfur, which are generally negative because of
increasing the fragility of steel and reducing weld -ability. (The quantity
of these ones must be not upper than 0,05%) .
Other elements generally negative because of increase the fragile-fracture
tendency are the Oxygen and the Hydrogen
Manganese and Silicon can be used to increase weld-ability and to
improve the mechanical features; Nevertheless, the carbon quantities
must be low.
Chrome increases mechanical performances and in a suitable proportion
also increases chemical features (stainless steel)
Nickel Increases mechanicals performances and decreases the
lengthening. (INVAR Steel, with a expansion coefficient extremely low)
