Traduction de «longtemps l'acier s'adoucit » (Français → Anglais) :

In some economic areas resource use has been subject to active management for a long time, such as OPEC for crude oil, ECSC for coal and steel, the EU Common Fisheries Policy, or land use planning systems.

Architects and engineers have said this to us. In fact, it can withstand more heat for a longer time than steel; steel will soften and collapse.

Great research is taking place in nano-materials and many other things that may provide, for example, a varnish that would expand, just as we have paint for steel that will expand in case of fire and protect it so that it can stay structurally stable long enough to evacuate people from a building.

I remember not long ago when the U.S. administration said it was going to use only American steel.

2. Condemns this attempt to solve the difficulties of the USA's uncompetitive steel industry at the expense of European and other steel producers; takes the view that the EU must not bear the costs of the restructuring of the US steel industry, which has been avoided for too long by successive US administrations; points out that the US difficulties reflect this failure to restructure, as well as inadequate RD in steel and the enormous overhang of so-called 'legacy costs' for US steel producers, and that imports, which have fallen by 33% since 1998 - while EU steel imports rose by 18% - are manifestly not the problem;

US steel has been uncompetitive and in deep trouble over a long period; it has not become so suddenly.

3. Points out that the key problem is not one of imports but the enormous overhang of so-called 'legacy costs' for US steel producers; takes the view, therefore, that the EU should not bear the indirect costs of the restructuring of the US steel industry, which has been avoided for too long by successive US administrations;

The US steel market has long been a battlefield where mini mills have been progressively gaining supremacy at the expenses of traditional integrated mills.

It was not so long ago that the Copyright Act contained references to long-dead technologies, such as perforated rolls, punched rolled steel cylinders used in music boxes in the 1880s and 1890s, and it only took 100 years for those references to be removed from the act.
