To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is fortunate that hot steel can be formed relatively easily, for it is this property of steel which makes it such a valuable material. A rolling mill works the steel ingot something like a rolling pin works pie crust. The hot steel billet is pressed between two rotating rolls and is elongated by the pressure be- tween them. Bars, strips, plates and sheets can all be rolled in similar types of rolling mills. When special shapes are needed, such as rail- road rails, building or bridge beams of... I, T, H or L sections, or round or special shaped bars, special rolling mills are used. The rolls are made in the shape which it is desired to produce. The hot steel must pass through the rolls many times for it is not possible to completely form most shapes all at once. Each pass through the rolls forms the steel a little nearer to the size and shape of the finished product. If a plate an inch or more thick is needed, only a relatively few passes through the rolls are necessary. But, if a thin plate, such as is used for automobile bodies and fenders, is desired, many passes are necessary.
