Description

A 730MPa grade ultra-high strength steel plate for high-rise buildings and its manufacturing method Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of alloy steel manufacturing, and relates to a steel plate for high-rise buildings and a manufacturing method thereof, and specifically to a steel plate for high-rise buildings with a tensile strength of 730 MPa and a manufacturing method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the sustained and rapid development of my country's economy, urbanization has accelerated at an unprecedented pace. To conserve land and effectively utilize space, urban construction is naturally trending toward higher-rise and larger buildings. Steel structures are highly sought after in the market due to their high strength, light weight, excellent seismic performance, ease of building large spans and spaces, short construction cycles, reliable quality, environmental friendliness, and reusability. As China's building structures become taller, larger, and greener, ultra-high-strength steel with a tensile strength of 730 MPa or higher holds broad application prospects in high-rise buildings.

[0003] At present, there are few application results for ultra-high-strength medium-thick steel plates with a tensile strength of 730 MPa in the domestic construction industry, and there are few related patents. In addition, the production process is based on the quenching and tempering process. For example, the "A high-strength and high-toughness easily welded structural steel plate with a yield strength of 620 MPa and its preparation method" with publication number CN 112813344 B adopts a quenching + high-temperature tempering process to produce a yield strength of 620 MPa easily welded structural steel plate. Its disadvantages are: the process flow is relatively complicated, and the yield strength ratio of the final steel plate is not less than 0.88.

[0004] Publication number CN 115216681 A, "A method for producing Q620GJ with low yield ratio and high toughness," uses an online quenching + high-temperature tempering process to produce Q620GJ steel plates. Its disadvantages are: the process flow is relatively complex and the alloy element content is high. It is mainly used in the production of thick plates with a thickness of more than 80 mm.
