Introduction
Structural steel is a standard construction material, made from specific grades of steel
and formed in a range of industry standard cross-sectional shapes (or ‘Sections’).
Structural steel grades are designed with specific chemical compositions and
mechanical properties formulated for particular applications.
In Europe, Structural Steel must comply with the European Standard EN 10025 a
Governed by the ECISS (European Committee for Iron and Steel Standardization) a
subset of CEN (European Committee for Standardization.

There are many examples of European grades of structural steel such as; S195, S235,
S275, S355, S420, S460 etc. However, for the purposes of this article we will focus on
the Chemical Composition, Mechanical Properties and Applications of S235, S275,
S355. Three common structural steel grades used in all manner of Construction projects
across the EU.

Inline with the European Standard classifications, Structural steels must be referenced
using standard symbols including but not limited to: "S"235"J2’‘K2’’C’’Z’’W’’JR’’JO’’

Where:

 S – denotes the fact that it is Structural Steel

 235 – related to the minimum yield strength of the steel (tested at a thickness of
16mm)
 J2 / K2 / JR / JO – material toughness in relation to the Charpy impact or
‘V’notch test methodology
 W – Weathering Steel (Atmospheric Corrosion Resistant)
 Z – Structural steel with improved strength perpendicular to the surface
 C – Cold-formed

Depending on the manufacturing process, chemical composition and relevant

application, further letters and classifications might be used to reference particular
grades/products of structural steel.

The EU Standard classifications are inherently not a global standard and therefore a
number of corresponding grades with the same Chemical and Mechanical properties
may be used in other parts of the world. For example, Structural Steels fabricated for
the US market must be specified in accordance with the ASTM (American Society for
Testing and Materials) International guidelines and will be referenced with an ‘A’ and
then the relevant Grade such as A36, A53 etc.

In most countries Structural Steel is regulated and must meet a minimum specific
criterion for Shape, Size, Chemical Composition, strength etc.

Chemical Composition of Structural Steels - S235,

S275 and S355
The Chemical composition of Structural Steel is extremely important and highly
regulated. It is a fundamental factor which defines the Mechanical properties of the steel
material. In the following table you can see the Max % levels of certain regulated
elements present in European Structural steel grades S235, S275 and S355.

Grade C% Mn% P% S% Si%

S235 0.22 max 1.60 max 0.05 max 0.05 max 0.05 max

S275 0.25 max 1.60 max 0.04 max 0.05 max 0.05 max

S355 0.23 max 1.60 max 0.05 max 0.05 max 0.05 max

The chemical composition of Structural Steel is incredibly important to the engineer and
will change with specific Grades depending on their intended use. For Example;
S355K2W is a Structural Steel that has been hardened (K2) and has been designed
with a chemical composition to withstand increased weathering (W). Therefore, this
grade of Structural Steel will have a slightly different chemical composition to the
standard S355 grade.

Mechanical Properties of Structural Steel - S235, S275,

S355
The Mechanical Properties of Structural Steel are fundamental to its classification and
hence, application. Even though Chemical Composition is a dominant Factor of the
Mechanical Properties of steel, it is also very important to understand the minimum
standards for the Mechanical Properties (Performance characteristics) such as; Yield
Strength and Tensile Strength.

Yield Strength
The yield strength of structural steel measures the minimum force required to create a
permanent deformation in the steel. The naming convention used in European Standard
EN10025 refers to the Minimum Yield strength of the steel grade tested at 16mm thick.

Structural Steel Grade Minimum Yield Strength at nominal thickness 16mm

S235 33 000 ksi 235 N/mm2

S275 36 000 ksi 275 N/mm2

S355 50 000 ksi 355 N/mm2

Tensile Strength
The Tensile Strength of Structural steel relates to the point at which permanent
deformation occurs when the material is pulled or stretched laterally along its length.

Structural Steel Tensile Strength MPa at Nom thickness between 3mm

Grade and 16mm

S235 360 – 510 MPa

S275 370 – 530 MPa

S355 470 – 630 MPa

Typical Structural Steel ‘Sections’ / Cross-Sectional

Shapes
Structural Steel comes in many Grades but is normally sold pre-formed with a defined
cross-sectional shape, designed for specific applications. For example, it is common to
find Structural Steel sold in: I-Beams, Z-beams, Box Lintels, HSS (Hollow Structural
Section), L shaped, Steel Plate etc.

Depending on the desired application, an engineer will specify a grade of steel (Often to
meet minimum strength, max weight and or weathering requirements) and the sectional
shape, relative to the desired location and expected load to be carried or job to be
performed.

Applications of Structural Steel

Structural steels are used in many ways and their application can be diverse. They are
particularly useful because they offer the unique combination of good welding properties
with guaranteed strengths. Structural Steel is an extremely adaptable product and is
often favoured by the engineer trying to maximise strength or s structure while
minimising its weight.

It will come as no surprise that the construction industry is the biggest consumer of
Structural Steel, where it is used for all manner of purposes and employed at diverse

residential property or a vast I-beam is bolted in place to hold the road surface on a
bridge, structural steel can be specified, designed and fabricated for the job.
