5. Conclusions
- (1)
- A performance evaluation procedure of steel structural members for reuse is proposed using a non-destructive test, and the evaluation flow of steel structural members is shown.
- (2)
- The mechanical properties of steel structural members are assumed to be SS400 grade steel by hardness or chemical compositions in the non-destructive test and meet the design specification.
- (3)
- The tensile strengths of steel structural members are assumed by hardness using an ultrasonic hardness tester.
- (4)
- Based on the performance evaluation procedure of steel structural members, the performances of structural members of the building steel structure for reuse are verified.
