Technical Standards

The Steel-Iron-Rules consists of more than 240 documents:

  • Steel Iron Plant Leaves (SEB)
  • Steel Iron Service Lists (SEE)
  • Steel Iron Delivery Conditions (SEL)
  • Steel Iron Test Sheets (SEP)
  • Steel-iron material sheets (SEW)
  • Standards and technical delivery conditions

The writings of this series give a concentrated overview of the variety of applications and the range of processing and processing methods of steel. For a better understanding they are extensively illustrated with photos and technical drawings. Some editions have been translated into English.
