1
Properties of metals vary widely as a result of variations in composition, heat treatment, and mechanical working.
2
For ductile metals the compression strength is generally assumed to be equal to the tension strength.
3
Offset of 0.2 percent.
4
Timber properties are for loading parallel to the grain.
