In message , " writes I would have thought so, I must be cheaper to use 70 lbs a yard steel than 120 lbs a yard steel in base product alone before any pre-forming takes place. What do you mean by base product? Steel bar to be converted into rails. -- Clive I'd like an accountant/quantity engineer/etc to chime in here, but AIUI, the steel for the rails is such a small percentage of the cost that to skimp on this may increase life cost due to rail maintenance and transfer of higher incident loads to the substructure.
