When was the last time you drove down the highway without seeing a commercial truck hauling goods?

Ciao.
RE: strength to weight ratio of steel
"Grade 43 is an old number for structural steel acc. BS.
It is now called S275.
Tensile strength 410-560 Mpa
Yield 275 Mpa (for tk up to 16mm)"
so which temper are you using ?
and what strength ... tension, compression, bending ...
RE: strength to weight ratio of steel
If you are looking at it from a design point of view, i.e bending, shear, tensile, compression in structural members you could look at BS 5950 Structural use of steelwork in building. This is a British Ultimate Limit State design code.
