Read-only reference tools. Every answer is derived from published data and carries its source; a question this data cannot answer is refused rather than estimated. There is no bulk export and no pagination — name what you want.
Known tools 5
calculate_steel_propertyRun one published steel formula over numbers you supply — PREN, carbon equivalent, preheat temperature, weld heat input or weld cooling time.
Inferred read-onlycompare_materialsCompare two named steel grades element by element, side by side, each figure citing the source that states it.
Inferred read-onlysearch_steel_compositionFind steel grades whose chemical composition falls inside the element windows you give, written Symbol:min-max — for example Cr:16-18.
Inferred read-onlylookup_steel_materialResolve one steel designation, material number or alias to the material it names, together with every other designation that material carries and its chemical composition, each figure citing the source that states it.
Inferred read-onlybrowse_steel_standardsList the standard namespaces this catalogue publishes and, for one namespace named by its uuid, a bounded sample of the designations inside it.
