Manov Steel Inc. has a rolling mill that produces sheet steel with a nominal thickness of 0.125 inch. Suppose that the specification limits are given by LSL = 0.120 and USL %3D = 0.130 inch. According to historical data, the actual thickness of a random sheet produced by the mill is normally distributed with mean and standard deviation of = 0.125 and o = 0.0025.

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.
