Demolished Bridge I-Beam Scrap
Cut segments from weathered steel I-beams recovered from bridge demolition, featuring rivet holes and weld marks, average length 1-2 meters. Fits HTS 7204.49.00.60 as structural scrap for remelting, excluding intact fabricated structures. High carbon content from weathering makes it ideal for rerolling.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If from railroad scrap
Railway-specific structural scrap has dedicated statistical reporting code.
If alloy steel composition exceeds base ferrous limits
Alloyed structural scrap shifts to Chapter 72 alloy waste headings.
If imported as equipment towers or masts
Prefabricated structural assemblies are classified by function, not as scrap.
