Abstract:		 In July 2005, ARCUS were commissioned by RSK ENSR, on behalf of Corus, to undertake process recording on the operation of the scrapyard and on the penultimate steel melt of the electric arc furnace at Stocksbridge Steelworks, South Yorkshire (SK 2580 9910). Recording included black and white and colour photography, as well as video of the melt. The work was undertaken prior to the closing of the melting shop and scrapyard, with the aim of preserving a record of the processes and technology used at the Stocksbridge Works at the end of its 143-year history of steel production. The management of materials throughout the site was structured to directly reflect the site process flow. Materials were sorted and arranged to facilitate quick selection for melting in the furnace. The processes and equipment used in the melt shop were typical of the operation, and differed little from other works running similar operations. However significance was earned in Stocksbridge Steelworks to what had been the final evolution in production methods onsite that had began with crucible steel manufacturing.
