Abstract

This research is based on both, theoretical and experimental work and aims to assessment the yield point of concrete steels, based on the known alloy chemical composition. The experimental portion of the work was performed at the Split steelmaking factory, which produces concrete steels from the waste iron. The theoretical portion of this study involves mathematical modelling carried out using the software package MATLAB. The work presented here provides both a scientific and practical contribution to the field. By using mathematical modelling, the accuracy of the estimation of the yield point is improved by 8,5%. Using this correlation enables the reduction of the concrete steel production costs because it is possible to reduce the use of expensive tests for the characterization of strength and mechanical properties.
