Why Does Titanium Stand Out Among Metals?
1. Low Density, High Strength-to-Weight Ratio Titanium has a density of 4.51 g/cm³—higher than aluminum but lower than steel, copper, and nickel. However, its strength-to-weight ratio surpasses that of aluminum alloys and high-strength steels. This combination of lightness and strength makes titanium an ideal structural material for aerospace, missiles, and advanced weaponry. It is also used…

Metal’s Role in Resilient Design Amid Climate Crisis
—
by
As wildfires rage across the American West, hurricanes intensify in the Southeast, and insurance markets tighten nationwide, the demand for fire-resilient, climate-ready buildings is no longer theoretical—it’s urgent. What was once seen as rare or exceptional is now becoming the new norm, both in the U.S. and globally. In the metal construction sector, leaders are…
