    On -site metallography of structural steel and hardness testing will provide information on mechanical and microstructural properties of steel. This information can determine if load bearing properties have been affected by fire . The microstructure can be recorded by acetate -peel replicas which can be examined in the laboratory for any evidence of metallurgical irregularities due to heat.
