The aim of the Stress Concentration Experiment was to observe the stress concentration factor/feature for a set of mild steel specimens with various irregularities in each sample. These irregularities or “stress-raisers” include any notches and holes which vary in size (radius) and placement on the specimen (edge notches or holes) that may have an effect on the flow of stress. With the use of a Hounsfield 50 kN electrically operated tensile testing machine and 12 1-mm thick mild steel test…

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…

dimensional stability, Good wear resistance, Better internal damping. Difficult to be machined, scarce, high price, low conductivity, absorbs coolant. Granite has some major flaws, like the ones which are listed below. • It is difficult to machine this material into required size andshape • Its scarcity and price • Low thermal conductivity leading it to heat concentration andeventual cracking, Ceramics- Stiffness, strength, corrosion resistance, dimensional stability, good surface finish.…

3.1.3 FESEM and EDS analysis The structural morphology of the Pure HA, Sr-doped HA, La-doped HA and La/Sr co-doped HA (different La concentrations of 0.03, 0.06 and 0.1M) nanoparticles are analyzed by FESEM images are shown in Fig. 3 (a)-(f). The morphology of pure HA shown in Fig 3 (a) indicates that formation of spherical (or) chain pearl shape of nanoparticles, ranging from 70 to 84nm. Further, Sr (0.1M) doped HA and La (0.1M) doped HA belongs to Fig.3 (b)-(c), appears the formations of few…

Fixed coloration is enough if you do certain kinds of welding the use of the proper amperage (see chart under). The widespread fixed lens is color #10, and it offers the identical safety no matter what amps the light emits. All trendy glass helmets are fixed coloration. Variable coloration lenses are on all helmets with automobile darkening filters (ADF). It is activated while the arc sensors stumble on vivid mild, activating the clear out and darkening the lens to the appropriate coloration. To…

process of constructing your home and need to pick a roofing material? It may be tempting to go with traditional asphalt shingles, but know that slate can be an excellent choice for a home. Slate has many benefits that make it an appealing option to use during new construction. Consider the following 3 benefits. Slate is Durable Many homeowners love slate because the material is fireproof. Slate also has the durability of metal roof material since it is capable of withstanding various…

Based upon OSHA’s Best Practices for Hospital-Based First Receivers(OSHA 3249-08N 2006) and ATSDR’s Managing Hazardous Materials Incidents(HSEES 2001), PPE recommended for hospital first receivers is Level C+ (Level C with additional respiratory protection), and consists of; 1) A powered air-purifying respirator (PAPR) with chemical cartridges, 2) A chemically resistant suit, 3) Double gloves, and, 4) Chemically resistant boots.…

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 common materials within the…

affected under various circumstances. The strength of materials and how different properties affect it can change the circumstances they are put under. Tensile strength is the resistance of a material put under stress. It is different than compression or shear strength because of the direction of the force that the material undergoes. A material's ultimate tensile strength is different because it is the point of breaking of a material under a certain amount of stress. Contributing factors…

Silicon carbide has been recognised as an important structural ceramic material because of its unique combination of properties. It is a promising ceramic material that can replace conventional metals and ionic-bonded oxide ceramics such as alumina. Structure of Silicon carbide Silicon carbide is a compound of silicon, a metalloid, and carbon, a nonmetal, and has a giant molecular lattice structure. It has a similar structure with diamond. Each carbon atom is joined tetrahedrally to four…
