The report gives a summary of the research carried out during the past eight years by the British Electrical and Allied Industries Research Association on the development of steels for the construction of plant operating within the range of 350 deg. C. to 600 deg. C., and the development of methods of test by which comparative data for acceptance purposes can be obtained. A further report is in course of preparation dealing with the properties of steels as a basis for design for high-temperature service.
