Objective

Course gives basic knowledge related to steels used in Finnish industry. Student learns principles used in steel designations and is capable to apply this knowledge in identifying different steels. Student get acquainted to structural steels, pressure vessel steels, stainless steels and heat-treatable steels and on their carbon footprint and typical applications. Basic destructive testing methods in order to determine mechanical properties are introduced in the course. Basics for corrosion, its effects on steel and testing methods are introduced.

Content

Steel manufacturing and classification (SFS-EN 10020, SFS-EN 10027-1…2), Structural steels (SFS-EN 10025-2…-6), pressure equipment steels (SFS-EN 10028-2…-7, SFS-EN 10216-2…-5), stainless steels (SFS-EN 10088-1), heat-treatable steels (SFS-EN ISO 683-1…4). Sustainability (e.g. corrosion and life cycle). Carbon footprint of steels (SFS-EN 15804). Destructive testing (tensile test, bend test, Charpy-V test, hardness testing, micro examination).
