What is Shipbuilding Steel Plate
Shipbuilding steel plate refers to hot-rolled steel for the manufacture of ship structures produced in accordance with the requirements of the construction society. Often used as a special steel ordering, scheduling, sales, a ship including ship plates, steel and so on.
Shipbuilding Steel Classification
The Shipbuilding steel plate can be divided into general strength structural steel and high strength structural steel according to its minimum yield point strength level.
JINDALAI supplies and exports 2 types of ship steel, medium strength shipbuilding plate and high strength shipbuilding plate. All steel plate product can be manufactured according to Society LR, ABS, NK, GL, DNV, BV, KR, RINA, CCS, etc.
Application of Shipbuilding Steel
Shipbuilding traditionally uses structural steel plate to fabricate ship hulls. Modern steel plates have much higher tensile strengths than their predecessors, making them much better suited to the efficient construction of large container ships. Here are the Advantages of Shipbuilding Plates High corrosion resistant steel plate is perfect steel type for oil tanks, and when used in shipbuilding, ship weight is less for the same capacity ships, fuel cost and CO2 emission can be reduced.
