Glass and Steel

Glass is a transparent material made by melting silica sand, used in windows and containers for its clarity and strength. Steel is an alloy primarily of iron and carbon, known for its high strength, durability, and versatility in construction, appliances, and machinery. Both materials can be manufactured to meet specific strength and appearance requirements. Glass allows light and visibility but is brittle, while steel provides structural support and resilience. They are fundamental in modern architecture and industry, often used together to combine transparency with strength, such as in skyscraper facades and structural frameworks.
