Transcribed Image Text:Question Six
Sieel is a very important material in modern day manufacturing processes. Answer the following
questions regarding steel:
(a) Using a well-labelled and neat sketch, discuss the electric arc steelmaking process.
(b) Mention four types of steel and their specific applications.
(c) Using a neat sketch, show the relationship of hardness versus carbon percentage in a steel with
carbon percentage ranging from 0 to 1.4. Explain the importance of high hardness values in the range
1.0 to 1.4 %C and give two practical applications.
(d)
Figure 2 on the left shows a railway profile with an upper flange
(1), web (2) and lower flange (3). After coming out of the rolling
mill, the railway section with the shown profile requires normalising
as a heat treatment.
