Question:

Best Quality Steel...............!!?

What kind of steel should be used for constructing a steel building?

Answer:

Please specify what kind of steel, is it structural steel (like wide flange, channel or Z-section) or reinforcing steel? For structural steel, all steel members that passed the requirement of ASTM-A360 are the best quality. While for reinforcing steel, it should passed the requirement of ASTM-D3963 for epoxy coated and ASTM-A615 (Grade 60) for deformed bars.

In steel construction there are many standard types of steel used. Lots of different factors contribute to your steel choice. How tall is the building? Are you in an earthquake zone? Steel for the columns, or the beams? You might want to refer to the American Institute of Steel Construction for more information, they are the governing body in the US.
