Titanic was made of iron plates which was held together by steel rivets. Now in 1912, the process of creating steel by merging iron and coal was a revolutionary way to create a stronger metal and building ships with it.
Now, today's steel is far more superior than the steel created in 1912, but I don't think it would be fair to call it unsuitable metal since it was the best material they could've used when building the Titanic.
Then I just want to add that they didn't go cheap when building the Titanic. They didn't spare a coin, wich will be understood should you delve a little more in Titanic history.
