A high-purity reinforcing steel resistant to salt and capable of preventing deterioration of concrete substantially completely over a long period when the salt content of the concrete is not greater than 0.5 wt % in terms of Nacl amount in the sand of concrete. The reinforcing steel essentially consists of 0.001 to 1.0 wt % of C, less than 0.01 wt % of Si, 0.01 to 2.0 wt % of Mn, less than 0.015 wt % of P, less than 0.005 wt % of S, 0.01 to 0.5 wt % of Cu, 0.01 to 0.5 wt % of W, 0.001 to 0.10 wt % of Al and the balance Fe and incidental impurities. Disclosed also is another reinforcing steel capable of remarkably retarding deterioration of concrete even under such a severe corrosive condition that the salt content of the concrete exceeds 0.5 wt % in terms of Nacl amount in the same of concrete. This reinforcing steel essentially consists of 0.001 to 1.0 wt % of C, not greater than 0.05 wt % of Si, 0.01 to 2.0 wt % of Mn, less than 0.015 wt % of P, less than 0.005 wt % of S, 1.0 to 5.5 wt % of Ni, 0.001 to 0.5 wt % of W, 0.001 to 0.1 wt % of Al and the balance Fe and incidental impurities.

Reinforcing steel having resistance to salt and capable of preventing

A non-magnetic steel composition suitable for use in various steel and concrete structures, particularly magnetic floating high-speed railways, nuclear fusion facilities and marine structures and appliances where non-magnetic property is required. The steel composition contains

Seawater-corrosion-resistant non-magnetic steel materials

A non-magnetic steel material suitable for use in various steel and concrete structures such as magnetic floating high-speed railways, nuclear fusion facilities and marine structrures and appliances where non-magnetic properties are required. The steel composition contain (by weight):

Concrete reinforcing steel bars or wires useful for reinforcing concrete structures, such as concrete structures built on seashores and marine concrete structures, and concrete bridges, which are exposed to sea salt particles and sea-water splashes, and very excellent in preventing deteriorations or decays of these concrete structures. The steel bars or wires have the following composition,
