Q:Is Ace Steel's wrestling school still running?And do you know if their are any other wrestling schools in chicago?

Q:I bought a Remington 870 super mag last fall and wanted to to switch to non-tox steel loads. The gun came with a modified rem choke. I know that not all chokes are qualified to handle steel. It doesn't say anywhere on the choke no steel I was just wondering if anyone out there knew for sure that those chokes that the guns come with won't get damaged be steel.

Q:ok I got a dpms ar 15 and all i have put though it is good brass 223 ammo but is it ok to shoot the old crappy steel cased wolf ammo out of it will it hurt its function or will it hurt it cosmetically?

The primary complaint about wolf steel cased stuff besides it being dirty is that is wears out the chamber and extractor faster than brass. That is not true. It would be true if the cases were actually steel instead of a mixture that has a hardness that is close to brass. Now to prove how pervasive this myth is I expect a minimum of 4 thumbs down for this statement alone. In any case the only issue is that is you do use steel cased ammo the chamber has to be better cleaned. The residue left behind from the coating on the steel casings will build up. If you keep firing the cheap steel cased stuff this tend to be less of an issue but when you use brass cased ammo without cleaning the chamber out or in the same session once it heats up the stuff will actually grip the brass tightly causing case head tears. And your only option is to wait for the gun to cool down yank it out by hand because at that point the casing is in essence glued into the chamber.

Q:Steel resist tension. Then why we provide steel in compression zone ?

There are several reasons to add compression steel. Keep in mind, supported steel (meaning it can't buckle) resists compression as well. Compression steel helps reduce long term deflections. Concrete creeps under sustained loads. Steel lessens the compression, meaning less sustained compressive stress to cause creep deflection. It makes members more ductile. Since the steel takes some of the compressive stress, the compression block depth is reduced, increasing the strain in the tension steel at failure, resulting in more ductile behavior (the moment at first yield remains largely the same with compression steel added, but the increase in capacity after yield is significant). Compression steel insures that the tension steel yields before the concrete crushes, meaning it helps change the failure mode to tension controlled. It makes beams easier to construct. With bars in the top and bottom, you have longitudinal reinforcement in all 4 corners of the shear stirrups to keep them in place when pouring the concrete. Also, for continuous members, its often easier to run your negative moment steel the full length of the beam rather than trying to cut it off in the positive moment regions. Serviceability concerns. You're going to end up putting steel in that region anyway to for temperature and shrinkage.

Q:I'm building a single-speed commuter bike and I was wondering what the advantages and disadvantages of steel and alloy wheels are. Any experts out there who can give me specifics for each kind?

Steel wheels are at the lowest cost and quality end of bike equipment. If you're even thinking of buying a cheapo bike with steel wheels - don't. Steel wheels are poor quality and therefore weaker than an OK alum rim. They are heavier, braking isn't as good, won't stay true as long. Alum wheels are extruded, not cast, and are better in every way. They cost more is the only down side.

Q:How are steel coils used in the manufacturing of machinery?

Steel coils are commonly used in the manufacturing of machinery as they provide a versatile and reliable raw material. These coils are processed and shaped into various components, such as gears, shafts, and frames, that are essential for the functioning of machinery. The strength and durability of steel make it an ideal choice for withstanding heavy loads and high temperatures, ensuring the longevity and efficiency of machinery in different industries.

Q:- I'm considering doing my physics coursework on the uses of Mild Steel in skyscrapers and construction, would this be right? Some sources tell me mild steel is too weak, others say it is fine

Mild steel doesn't really mean anything, technically. In today's world all steel is mild steel unless it's high carbon or alloy, which are mostly tool steels. You'll need to study steel much deeper than that to accomplish any real physics work relating to steel.

Q:How are steel coils used in the production of industrial machinery?

Steel coils are used in the production of industrial machinery as they provide a strong and durable material for various components. These coils are often shaped and cut to specific sizes to create parts such as gears, shafts, and frames, which are essential for the functioning of machinery. The high strength and flexibility of steel coils make them ideal for withstanding heavy loads and harsh operating conditions, ensuring the reliability and longevity of industrial machinery.

Q:What is the shear modulus of steel and silver? Please help! and state where you got it from...what site did you used? Thanks.

There are more than 10,000 different steel alloys that have been specified and used for different purposes. They cover a huge range of mechanical properties. For silver, are you talking about pure silver, or a silver alloy with a additives to improve its mechanical properties? Typical values for mild steel at room temperature are E = 210 GPa, G = 80 GPa (source: 30 years working as a mech. engineer) Wikipedia gives E = 80GPa, G = 30GPa for pure silver (temperature not specified). Silver alloys may be very different from those values. The properties will also depend on the metal forming process (e.g. drawn wire, annealed, etc). NB some alloys with silver in their common name contain no silver at all.

Q:What are the dimensions of steel coils used in the construction equipment industry?

The dimensions of steel coils used in the construction equipment industry can vary, but they are typically around 48 to 72 inches in width and have an outer diameter of 60 to 80 inches. The weight of these coils can range from 5,000 to 30,000 pounds.
