Find one incorrect statement about the stress-strain behavior of engineering materials. Yield point (or elastic limit) can be a transition between elastic and plastic (or non-elastic) behavior of material. Brittle materials reveal a clear warning sign of damage such as significant plastic deformation long before the final failure. Proportional limit is part of linear elastic behavior of material. Ultimate stress can become the strength of material.

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.
