　　Steel structures are structures made of steel materials, and they are one of the main types of building structures. The structures are mainly composed of components such as steel beams, steel columns, and steel trusses made of steel sections and steel plates, and rust prevention processes such as silanization, pure manganese phosphating, water washing and drying, and galvanizing are used. The various components or parts are usually connected by welds, bolts, or rivets. Because of their light weight and simple construction, they are widely used in large factories, venues, and super-high-rise buildings. Steel structures are prone to rust. Generally, steel structures need derusting, galvanizing, or painting and require regular maintenance.
　　1. High material strength and light weight
　　Steel has high strength and a high modulus of elasticity. Compared with concrete and wood, its ratio of density to yield strength is relatively low. Therefore, under the same stress conditions, the steel structure components have a small cross-section and light weight, making them easy to transport and install. They are suitable for structures with large spans, high heights, and heavy loads.
　　2. Good steel toughness and plasticity, uniform material, and high structural reliability
　　Suitable for withstanding impact and dynamic loads, it has good seismic performance. The internal structure of steel is uniform and close to an isotropic homogeneous body. The actual working performance of steel structures is more consistent with the calculation theory. Therefore, steel structures have high reliability.
　　3. High degree of mechanization in the manufacturing and installation of steel structures
　　Steel structure components are easy to manufacture in factories and assemble on site. Factory mechanized manufacturing of steel structure components has high precision, high production efficiency, fast on-site assembly speed, and short construction periods. Steel structure is a highly industrialized type of structure.
　　4. Good sealing performance of steel structures
　　Because welded structures can be completely sealed, they can be made into high-pressure containers, large oil pools, and pressure pipelines with good airtightness and water tightness.
　　5. Steel structures are heat-resistant but not fire-resistant
　　When the temperature is below 150℃, the properties of steel change very little. Therefore, steel structures are suitable for hot workshops, but when the structure surface is subjected to thermal radiation of around 150℃, heat-insulating plates should be used for protection. When the temperature is 300℃-400℃, the strength and elastic modulus of steel decrease significantly, and when the temperature is around 600℃, the strength of steel tends to zero. In buildings with special fire protection requirements, steel structures must be protected with fire-resistant materials to improve the fire resistance rating.
　　6. Poor corrosion resistance of steel structures
　　Especially in humid and corrosive environments, it is prone to rust. Generally, steel structures need derusting, galvanizing, or painting and require regular maintenance. For offshore platform structures in seawater, special measures such as "zinc block anodic protection" should be used for corrosion prevention.
　　7. Low-carbon, energy-saving, environmentally friendly, and recyclable
　　Steel structure demolition produces almost no construction waste, and steel can be recycled.
