Structural steel activity steadies with big orders in December

New York December 12 Structural steel demand showed a mixed picture last week with about 85 000 tons of steel shapes under contract and a largest order of 10 090 tons for the Nana Building in Chicago forged by the American Bridge Company. Steel contracts for the month reach roughly 66 000 tons with 300 tons more in the pipeline. Rail orders remain sparse at 25 000 tons. Pig iron deliveries softened in the East while southern sales to pipe works and ore and coke prices draw attention. Output remains near 21 600 000 to 32 000 000 tons annually.
