Steel will have higher grades, strength and qualities, when anything is designed the quality of steel or any other materials to be used will have a specification, tensile strength, expansion and contraction etc etc under certain conditions....what the material can expect to find in it's lifespan. Eg the steel used on a tank is going to be a lot stronger than the stuff used for a car.So what's all the noise on here about Chinese steel not being up to scratch then? Genuine question as it's not an area in which I have any specific knowledge.
What a lot seem to think is that because Chinese steel is cheap it therefore equates to being shite.
But if any steel is ordered even the Chinese company's will have to make sure that the steel supplied for the job is upto scratch and it will be tested this side by the Importers and stamped to say it's upto standard, and what grade it is, like any thing else shipped into the EU, it has to pass muster
