Higher strength: Because the strength of low alloy structural steel is much higher than that of the same carbon steel, it is also known as low alloy high strength steel.
Low-alloy structural steels refer to the types of alloy steels with a small amount of alloy elements less than 3%, which includes many standards and proprietary grades designed to provide a specific combination of required characteristics, such as toughness strength, formability, weldability, and atmospheric corrosion resistance.
