A portion of the total effort of the Beryllium Extrusion Development Program, Phase I is reported. The work reported herein is part of an extension to Phase I in which the major problems of beryllium extrusion are being thoroughly investigated. Feasibility of unclad beryllium extrusion was demonstrated in Phase I proper, but additional work was considered necessary to perfect extrusion methods. Twenty linear foot lengths of extruded shapes are desired; five to six foot shapes were made in Phase I proper; ten to twelve foot lengthsshave now been realized; and efforts are now being directed toward method development for the twenty-foot long Phase I channel shaped extrusions. Efforts now being expended should reduce the scope of tasks required to successfully complete Phases II and RI. (auth)
