Cast Aluminum Structures Technology (CAST) Structural Test and Evaluation (Phase V). Part III-Static Property Allowables

摘要

This document contains static mechanical properties of A257-T6 aluminum alloy castings. Properties of castings are relatable to non-destructively measured soundness and aluminum dendrite size. A criterion is developed for design properties in terms of these physical parameters applicable to all castings of the same alloy and temper regardless of size, shape, method of production, mold materials or other process variables.
