: The maximum stress a material can withstand while being stretched.
: Resistance to localized surface deformation, often increased by adding carbon or heat treatment. : The maximum stress a material can withstand
: Ease with which a material can be joined by welding; low-carbon steels typically offer the best weldability. 2. Steel Specifications and Standards : The maximum stress a material can withstand
: The ability to undergo significant plastic deformation before rupture, crucial for forming processes. : The maximum stress a material can withstand
: Primarily achieved in stainless steels by adding a minimum of 10.5%–11% chromium.
