In this post I'll talk about and give details about ASTM A100. First let's describe it and then have a look at its material's properties.
Ok let's start with ASTM A100 chemical composition.
Learn more about chemical composition.
Now it's the mechanical properties turn:
Learn more about the what is allowable stress.
I ranked materials according to their yield strengths and ASTM A100 currently ranks 135 in my yield strength index. This means there are other 134 materials that are more resistant.
Note: I've analysed 134 materials in order to create an yield strength index. Check my astm material's comparison post for more details.
What is the difference between Code, Standard & Specification?

That gives credibility to your paper and it is sometimes required in higher education.
To make your life (and citation) easier just copy & paste the information below into your assignment or essay:

My Material's Rank
While engineers will often look for the cheapest material they can use, I took a different approach to material's selection to help newbie students.I ranked materials according to their yield strengths and ASTM A100 currently ranks 135 in my yield strength index. This means there are other 134 materials that are more resistant.
Note: I've analysed 134 materials in order to create an yield strength index. Check my astm material's comparison post for more details.
