An aluminum alloy [E = 67 GPa; v=0.33; a = 23.0 × 10-6/°C] plate is subjected to a tensile load P. The plate has a depth of d = 225 mm, a cross-sectional area of A = 5100 mm², and a length of L = 4.1 m. The initial longitudinal normal strain in the plate is zero. After load P is applied and the temperature of the plate has been increased by AT = 63°C, the longitudinal normal strain in the plate is found to be 2900 με. Determine: (a) the magnitude of load P. (b) the change in plate depth Ad. L P Answer: (a) P = i (b) Δd = i KN mm

Material Properties

Construction in civil engineering demands high strength, durability, and longevity. These targets can be achieved by better design and analysis, along with the correct choice of materials. Different materials have different properties and hence, they respond and performs differently under the various condition of external loadings. It is therefore a critical task of an engineer to select the right material based on the property that the material is supposed to function in real-time. When speaking about the property, there are different categories of material properties like chemical property, physical property, mechanical property, electrical property, magnetic property, thermal property, etc. These material properties form the basis of material selection in various applications.
