Question 1 Part A: General Topic Properties of stainless steel • Corrosion resistant • Good tensile strength • Good low and high temperature service • Appearance • Hygienic • Has a respectable friction coefficient Corrosion resistant Stainless steel has a chromium-rich rust protective oxide thin film on the surface known as a passive layer, in which prevents corrosion by blocking oxygen diffusion to enter the passive layer and spreads rust into the internal material. As seen in Figure 1,…
5. CREATIVE PHASE Table IV Functional Development to Cost (An Incline) Function Creative Ideas & Development Estimated Cost (Rs) Provide Surface 1) Change the material to Mild Steel 40 2) Change the copper to brass 70 3) Combine function of bracket 85 (For sliding surfaces, copper facilitates lu-brication & high con-ductivity.) (A) The existing cost of the Incline + Bracket assembly = 112…
Properties of cold formed steel In general, cold formed steel has many important properties which make it significant building material, the main two properties of cold formed steel are: the yield point and the tensile strength and how are they related to formability of steel, most members in building industry are on high tensile loads, cold formed steel has a Huge tensile strength, however the ratio between the tensile strength and the yield strength is 1.2-1.8 .in addition to other good…
Minerals and their derived products are the foundation of many important industries. Mines and quarries can be found in almost every country all around the world. Mining industry products provide most of the needed energy, from electricity in homes and industries, to fuel in cars, machinery and tools Resources obtained from mines are also used as inputs for raw materials, consumer goods as well as for almost all services and processes provided by other industries, such as: manufacturing…
that had come before. Industrialism contributed to the growth of cities and railroads across the nation. One of the most important developments was the revolutionizing of iron and steel. The steel industry emerged around western Pennsylvania and eastern Ohio due to the fact that coal, which is used to fuel the furnaces, and iron, which is made into steel using a variety of methods, were found in abundance in that area. Pittsburg, P.A. became one of the centers of the steel world. New Jersey…
for the aluminum base. The adjustment knobs are based on thousandths. When it is time to break down each machine ,the stick machine uses a flux based rod. The flux is made of a carbon based compound. The welding rods can vary from brass, copper, cast iron, and stainless steel. All of these rods are made for a different type of…
Find out what you need to know about welding safety to get the job done One of the most significant dangers while welding is exposure to arc rays, known as arc flash. Arc flash is a burn off the outer layer of the eye. It’s because of intense exposure to UV radiation from electric welding arcs. It’s mainly like a sunburn, most useful in your eye. There are some approaches to protect yourself from arc flash. You’ll want the right defensive eyewear, which includes protection glasses and a…

On the site visit from 7th October there were many materials that were playing an important part in the development of the roadworks, including steel, concrete/cement and many more. Below I have selected three materials from the site visit and identified properties and uses. • Steel There are over 3000 different grades of steel all with unique physical and chemical properties. The production of steel is made in accordance with its application. Due to its high strength Steel is one of the most…
achieve the chemical reaction of Oxygen and Iron. Hypothesis: Independent Variables Dependent Variables Controlled Variables • Iron wool ball – When it is dipped in various types of liquid it may react to the oxygen in the liquid and chemical changes happen eg: Colour change = rusting • Thermometer – predicting the temperature of the iron wool ball below the room temperature • No substances or variable be kept the same If the off chance that the Iron wool ball is plunged in various…
