In this book covered are all the topics in metals and metals production processes. The first three sections include a glossary of 3000 terms, frequently used engineering tables giving data on the physical properties of the elements and standard industrial ferrous and nonferrous alloys; conversion tables; articles on crystal structure, physical and mechanical properties, and phase diagrams; and criteria used in selecting alloys for design purposes. The next major part is on properties and selection and offers explanations of the metallurgy, typical uses and service characteristics of industrial alloys. The chemical compositions and mechanical properties of thousands of standard ferrous and nonferrous alloys are given. Practical information is provided on failure analysis, nondestructive testing, mechanical testing, metallography, fractography and quality control.
