Grade 1045 is generally not recommended for critical applications, particularly those where high strength is required in combination with ductility or toughness. For these applications low-alloy steels are generally recommended (or in certain cases micro-alloy steels). 1045 Grade Data Sheet (atlassteels.com.au)
BISALLOY STRUCTURAL steel，has been continually manufactured in Australia for over 40 years and is low alloy, high strength steel plate with a yield stress three times that of carbon steel and featuring low carbon, excellent notch toughness and excellent weldability and formability.

Other Information
Mild steel is a type of carbon steel with a low amount of carbon (typically 0.05% to 0.25%); these are also known as “low carbon steels.” Low carbon steel is considered a relatively inexpensive and versatile material that is commonly used in various construction and manufacturing applications.
