  2. Material selection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Material_selection

    The most straightforward way to weight cost against properties is to develop a monetary metric for properties of parts. For example, life cycle assessment can show that the net present value of reducing the weight of a car by 1 kg averages around $5, so material substitution which reduces the weight of a car can cost up to $5 per kilogram of ...

    2.1.3 Standard per steel name. ... Steel for reinforced concrete: ... Electrical Steel: Number = 100 × specific loss in W/kg

  4. Properties of concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_concrete

    Concrete which is subjected to long-duration forces is prone to creep. The density of concrete varies, but is around 2,400 kilograms per cubic metre (150 lb/cu ft). [1] Reinforced concrete is the most common form of concrete. The reinforcement is often steel rebar (mesh, spiral, bars and other forms). Structural fibers of various materials are ...

  5. Types of concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_concrete

    The parts are in terms of weight – not volume. For example, 1-cubic-foot (0.028 m 3) of concrete would be made using 22 lb (10.0 kg) cement, 10 lb (4.5 kg) water, 41 lb (19 kg) dry sand, 70 lb (32 kg) dry stone (1/2" to 3/4" stone). This would make 1-cubic-foot (0.028 m 3) of concrete and would weigh about 143 lb (65 kg). The sand should be ...

  6. A36 steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A36_steel

    As with most steels, A36 has a density of 0.28 pounds mass per cubic inch (7.8 grams per cubic centimeter). Young's modulus for A36 steel is 29,000 kilopounds per square inch (200 gigapascals). [6] A36 steel has a Poisson's ratio of 0.26 and a shear modulus of 11,500 ksi (79.3 GPa). [7]

  7. Structural steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_steel

    The austenizing temperature, the temperature where a steel transforms to an austenite crystal structure, for steel starts at 900 °C (1,650 °F) for pure iron, then, as more carbon is added, the temperature falls to a minimum 724 °C (1,335 °F) for eutectic steel (steel with only .83% by weight of carbon in it).

  8. Maraging steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maraging_steel

    Maraging steels are usually described by a number (e.g., SAE steel grades 200, 250, 300 or 350), which indicates the approximate nominal tensile strength in thousands of pounds per square inch (ksi). The compositions and required properties were defined in US military standard MIL-S-46850D. [ 10 ] .

  9. Ferrocement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrocement

    The advantages of a well built ferro concrete construction are the low weight, maintenance costs, and long lifetime in comparison with purely steel constructions. [10] However, meticulous building precision is considered crucial, especially with respect to the cementitious composition and the way in which it is applied in and on the framework ...
