What properties do you use to determine the grade of steel (ie modulus of elasticity)?

Solutions

Expert Solution

According to the World Steel Association, there are over 3,500 different grades of steel.

Steel can be broadly categorized into four groups based on their chemical compositions:

  1. Carbon Steels
  2. Alloy Steels
  3. Stainless Steels
  4. Tool Steels

The table below shows the typical properties of steels at room temperature (25°C).
