Early steel structures used iron heated with charcoal to absorb carbon and make the surface harder through repetition. The first American steel profile was an elbow iron in 1819. Steel was first made in the US in 1884 and used to build the Home Insurance Company Building. Modern steel properties depend on carbon content and other additives, with carbon usually below 0.5%. High strength steel provides benefits like corrosion resistance and cost savings from reduced weight.

The first time a human uses metal is a type of copper mixture called bronzone which then evolves with the use of iron material which is given additional material so that it becomes steel material. At the beginning of steel making , iron is heated wit5h direct contact of charcoal. The surface of the iron will absorb the carbon from the carcoal which is then forged when the iroin is hot.repetitionof this process will make the steel surface becomes harder. PROFILE OF THE STEEL The historical profile of steel structures is inseparable from the development of structural design in the US which then followed by other countries. The first profile form created in the US was an elbow iron in 1819. STEEL was first made in the US in 1884 and the first frame structure (Home Insurance Company Builing of Chicago)was built in the same year.eiffel tower built in 1889 with a height of 985 ft made of wrought iron and equipped with wechanical elevator. In general the steel profile named based shape of the cross section. Relatiuon stress-strain steel structure Understanding of the behavior of steel structures is very necessary knowledge of the properties of steel structures., a constant voltageacomnpanied by an extension or strain is called a yield stress. Thisd points is an important value for steel materials because the planning with elastic method is based on this voltage value. Strain that accurs before the melthing points is called the elastic strain, while the strain after the melting point is called a plastic strain that is about 10-15 the elastic strain If the voltage at a point from a dactile structure reaches the melting stress, elements of the structure will melt locally without adding voltage so as to prevent premature collapse. In the presence of this ductality , the streaa in the atructure can be redistributed or distributed to all structural components. Modern steel structure The properties of steel bcan change drastically by altering carbon content and adding other elements such silicon, nickel, manganese, and copper. The carbon content is usually very low at 0,2-o,3 % on a weight basis and not more than 0,5%. The chemical properties of the steel are very handy because it sffects the ease of welding, resistance to corrosion, resistance to brittle collapse and others. Although the physical and mechanical properties of steel are largely determined by chemical composition, the nature of steel is also binfluenced by the making process and the history of loading and heating process. Steel with cooling and forging This steel has additional material more than carbon steel then heated and cooled, then it is forged to again strength and clay with a force of between 70 110 ksi (483 758 MPa). Cooling is done quicklky by using water or oil from a temperature of 1650oF to 300oF. in forging, the steel is heated to 1150o, then allowed to cool. Use of high strength steel The decisive factor in determining the use of high strength steel is: 1. corrosion resistant 2. savings in shipping, installation,foundation costs effects existence weight savings of steel 3. the use of a shorter beam can reduce the height of each floor 4. because it uses a smaller element, the cost of fire protection is smaller
