  We study electroweak parameters sensitive to the radiative corrections, such
as $\rho$-ratio and $\hff$ decay rates in the $\ms$-scheme in the heavy
$t$-quark mass limit $m_{t} \gg m_{w}$. In $\ms$-scheme the two-loop
electroweak corrections $\sim m_{t}^{4}$ dominate over the QCD corrections
$\sim \as m_{t}^{2}$ in the $\rho$-ratio. The relation between the on-shell
coupling constants and $\ms$-parameters is found to be rather sensitive to the
Higgs boson mass.
