Cast Steel Parts For Green & Sustainable Building Construction

One of the hottest new trends in steel construction is the use of steel castings and not just the tiny "spider" fixtures for glass, or fittings for cable or rod systems, but, heavily loaded, yet sleek and streamlined steel castings that are being used in the primary structural systems of buildings.

Castings are proven solution against all Drawbacks of Fabrications, provide aptly for all fatigue critical and complex, heavily loaded structural connections, in both Static and Seismic load carrying applications.

Cast parts are the "best Performers", in architecturally exposed structural steel (AESS) application. We in India have availability of skilled Labour, Quality Raw Material & Technology Experts. Cast Parts from India are exported to all over the world today, due to specific Techno- Commercial advantages.

Our attempt is to help our customers (Indian or abroad) understand the "USE OF CAST PARTS in MODERN CIVIL Industry".

In the past, very few Metal Cast Parts were designed & used by Architects as well as Structural Engineers for Cities, Municipalities,however Modern Civil Projects of Metro Cities in recent times, shows an increasing trend for the use of CAST METAL PARTS, all over the World.

Fortune team, ventures in to every new Avenue sector with application-based approach & sustained association with advanced technologies in Metal Cast Parts.

STEEL FOUNDRIES SOCIETY OF AMERICA - SFSA partnered with the American Institute of Steel Construction, AISC since two decades,SFSA member companies established a specific initiative, named the Steel Casting Construction Consortium (SC3), to develop opportunities for steel castings in building construction.

STANDARD GUIDELINES FOR MANUFACTURING STEEL CASTINGS IN CIVIL SECTOR

  • Current casting material approved per, Load and Resistance Factor Design - LRFD, vol. 1, 2nd, p. 6-28
  • ASTM A27, grade 65-35
  • ASTM A148, grade 80-50

Steel Foundries recommend ASTM A216, grade WCB, with Supplement 11 for all steel building construction applications. This will provide a material that has better weld ability and ductility than the wrought steel, and includes a carbon equivalent limit. By increasing the section thickness any required strength is possible with Cast Steels. For cold climate applications, ASTM A352 LCB is used.

If it is desired to keep a 50 ksi cast material in the specifications, then Foundries recommend ASTM A958, grade SC8620, class 80/50. However, advantage of cast steels is, Alloys with even higher YS are also available.

For stainless steel applications, Fortune Foundries Pvt. Ltd; recommends corrosion resistant alloy CF8 for 304 applications and CF8M for 316 applications per ASTM A743.

In general Structural design engineers consider three different steel casting alloys, as specified by ASTM standards

  1. ASTM A27 Grade 70-40 Carbon Steel Casting for General Application Composition = 0.25 C max, 1.20 Mn Max, 0.80 Si Max, 0.05 S&P Max

  2. ASTM A148 - Grade 80-50 High Strength Castings for Structural Purposes Composition = C, Mn, Si, S per agreement; 0.06 S Max, 0.05 P Max

  3. ASTM A958 - Grade 8620, Class 80/50 : Steel Castings with Tensile and Chemical Requirements for specially stressed joints, architecturally exposed joints with corrosion/chemical resistance properties. Composition = Min/Max Specified for C, Mn, Si, Ni, Cr, Mo; Max for S&P.

We Follow BS EN 10340 – 2007 & BS EN 10343 – 2009 Or any other International Standard For Cast Steel Parts.

Foundry Industry, that understands Casting of Steel or any Metal, offers an interesting & useful structural option to the Civil Industry,AESS Design Users & to take All the advantage of this alternative. This in turn will help with Sustainable growth for, Environment friendly & 100% Recyclable, Modern Civil & the entire Industry as a whole.
