The U.S. Commerce Department has set tentative anti-dumping duties of up to 141.3 percent on fabricated structural steel from China and up to 30.6 percent on the same products from Mexico, ruling that producers in those countries were dumping product and undercutting domestic prices.
In a preliminary ruling issued in September, the Department also found that Canadian imports had not violated anti-dumping rules. The case arose on a complaint from the American Institute of Steel Construction.
Final determinations are due early next year.
