Abstract Through the thermo-mechanical control process (TMCP), a high Nb low Mo fire resistant steel with the yield strength (YS) of 521 MPa at room temperature (RT) and 360 MPa at elevated temperature (ET) of 600 �� was developed based on MX (M=Nb, V, Mo; X=C,N) precipitation strengthening. A series of tensile and constant load tests were conducted to study the mechanical properties at ET. The dynamic continuous cooling transformation (CCT) as well as precipitation behavior of microalloy carbonitride was investigated by means of thermal simulator and electron microscopy approaches. Results showed that the failure temperature of tested steel was determined as 653 ��, and the granular bainite was obtained when the cooling rate was higher than 10 ��/s. In the rolled state, a certain amount of M/A islands was observed. During heating from RT to ET, M/A islands disappeared, and cementites and high dense compound precipitates (Nb,Mo,V)C with size of less than 10 nm precipitated in ferrite at ET (600 ��), which resulted in precipitation strengthening at ET.
