aluminum/stainless steel tubing strength
try
on aluminum yo can look the book
aluminum structures, a guide to their specifications and design.
j. randolph kissell, robert l. ferry
wiley interscience
a very good book. to do anything well takes no less than what there said.
out of memory of what there read (i am not aluminum structures designer), in any case typical aluminum structural alloys seem to be a bit less strong than 36 ksi steel, the shear modulus is quite lower, and safety factors for strength were in the vicinity of 2, what would give for pipes in only bending about 16 ksi, but depending on the alloy.
the download of the quoted link failed for me.
this other has typical properties of some stainless steel
please let me know the tensile strengh of the aluminium material as early as possible.
table 3.5 of ferry reference as above gives for different alloys of aluminum used for structural design work
minimum rupture tensile strength .... from 20 to 45 ksi
(more typical 30 to 37 ksi)
minimum yield strength 7 to 36 ksi
(more typical form 20 to 29 ksi) |
