The earliest of the present-day HSLA [High-Strength Low-Alloy Steels] was "COR-TEN" brand, a steel with excellent atmospheric corrosion resistance, which was introduced by United States Steel in 1933... COR-TEN steel and other corrosion-resistant HSLA steels have been used for exposed members of buildings because the architects desired the appearance of the tightly adherent oxide coating that forms on this steel. 1, record 1, English, - COR%2DTEN%20steel
