Abstract

Provided is a plastic working method of steel including austenite, the method including: analyzing a strain ratio βx of an estimated breaking point which is specified during plastic deformation of the steel; heating a steel such that a local temperature Tlocal is within a temperature range indicated by the following expression 1, when Tβx represents a strain-induced-transformation-maximum-ductility-temperature in the unit of ° C. for the strain ratio βx, σLβx represents the standard deviation of a fitted curve of critical equivalent strain which depends on the strain ratio βx on a lower temperature side than Tβx, σHβx represents the standard deviation of a fitted curve of critical equivalent strain which depends on the strain ratio βx on a higher temperature side than Tβx, and Tlocal represents a local temperature in the unit of ° C. of the estimated breaking point; and plastically deforming the steel after heating: Tβx−2×σLβx≤Tlocal≤Tβx+1.25×σHβx  (Expression 1).
