Structural steel is a construction material that possesses attributes such as strength, stiffness, toughness,
and ductility that are desirable in modern constructions. Strength is the ability of a material to resist
stress. It is measured in terms of the material’s yield strength Fy and ultimate or tensile strength Fu. Steel
used in ordinary constructions normally have values of Fy and Fu that range from 36 to 50 ksi (248 to
345 MPa) and from 58 to 70 ksi (400 to 483 MPa), respectively, although higher-strength steels are
becoming more common. Stiffness is the ability of a material to resist deformation.
