Abstract
DURING World War II, when the availability of alloy
steels from abroad was poor, attempts were made to
have makeshift indigenous production. Pioneers in the field were the Tata Iron & Steel Co.Ltd. Tatas started making alloy steels a little over two decades hack for
the construction of the new Howrah Bridge, when they
patented their ' Tiscor ' steel - a low-alloy constr-uctional steel with approximately 1 per cent chrome
and 0.5 per cent Cu, having better resistance to atmo-sphere corrosion than ordinary mild steel. A major part
of the steel structure of the Howrah Bridge is fabri-
cated from Tatas' 'Tiscor' steel.
