Abstract

WHILE considering the specification requirements of various steels, the possibility of graphically correlating the main factors occurred to the writer. At the first attempt, a correlation of ultimate tensile strengths with proof stresses produced, graphically, a sort of hyperbola; at the second attempt, by changing the vertical and horizontal scales, and working to average figures, the graph took the form of a straight line ending in a hyperbolic curve; at the third attempt the graph became a straight line with plotted points not exactly coincidental with the line; the fourth attempt produced the U.T.S./Proof Stress “curve” which is the subject of this paper.
