What is it about?
This paper presents a review of the most relevant articles on fire-resistant (FR) steels. An important FR steels issue is the maintenance of mechanical properties at high temperatures better than the more widely used structural steels, mainly due to their special chemical composition and the thermal treatment used in their manufacture.

Why is it important?
A summary is also presented of the most important elements in their composition and the different manufacturing treatments of these steels and their influence on the initial YE and RA at different temperaturas after a deep literature revision
Perspectives
The most effective thermal treatment is air cooling, although special attention should be paid to the influence of slab reheating and the finish rolling temperatura of FR steels
