The process of steel-making or the conversion of iron into steel; also the steelwork or steel articles collectively.
From French 'aciérage,' derived from 'acier' (steel). The suffix '-age' denotes a process, material, or collection, following French and English word-building conventions.
Acierage revolutionized warfare and construction—when blacksmiths learned to add carbon to iron systematically rather than by accident, they could mass-produce stronger, more reliable steel tools and weapons!
