Summary

A one day technical course on fundamental principles and modern practices in Carbon & Alloy Steel Metallurgy & Processing.

This one day course has been developed for people with technical and engineering backgrounds working in or with the steel industry to help them gain an understanding of the metallurgy & processing of carbon and alloy steels.

The course focuses on basic metallurgical principles, primary and secondary steel making processes, how steels are specified and evaluated and matching grades to applications. Some typical applications are also covered. It is ideally suited to industry professionals requiring a more technical insight into steel metallurgy.

Workshop format

4 virtual classes (VC’s) of 1.5 hours each, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday
