Cast iron is an alloy of iron and carbon (2% to 4%) used in casting (primarily operations requires low viscosity so that the molten metal fills the mold.
Steel construction came into being in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as a natural development from earlier techniques that used cast and wrought
Normally, rimmed steel is cast into a big-end-down mold, as shown in B in the receives liquid steel from the ladle and directs it to the molds, filling
placed over the molds where the casting is to be carried out. Now the ladle containing the molten metal is brought to the station, and the molten metal
