Proof/Yield Strength required for EN1A carbon steel

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The proof or yield strength of EN1A carbon steel, also known as 220M07 per BS970, is established at 305 MPa, with a breaking stress of 480 MPa. Young's modulus for this material is 207,000 MPa, and Poisson’s ratio is 0.3. The discussion highlights the variability in reported yield strength values, suggesting that users may opt for conservative estimates or consider the range in their safety factors. The provided link to a resource offers additional data for further reference.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of material properties such as yield strength and tensile strength
  • Familiarity with BS970 standards for steel specifications
  • Knowledge of Young's modulus and Poisson’s ratio in material science
  • Basic principles of safety factors in engineering design
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the mechanical properties of 220M07 steel as per BS970
  • Explore the implications of variability in yield strength on engineering safety factors
  • Learn about the testing methods for determining yield and tensile strength in materials
  • Investigate other carbon steels and their comparative properties to EN1A
USEFUL FOR

Engineers, material scientists, and professionals involved in structural design and analysis who require precise knowledge of EN1A carbon steel properties for applications in construction and manufacturing.

Hi guys,

i have been searching for ages to get figures for the proof or yield strength of EN1A steel, which is now known as 220M07 as per BS970.

I have managed to obtain the Tensile strength, but would anyboday please be able to help point me in the right direction to data for the yield or proof strength.

Thanks in Advance,

Amir

Many thanks Timmay

just what i needed

Cheers
 
No worries. From my far from extensive search I established that there's a wide range of reported values, so you may wish to either use the lowest value for conservative estimates or take the spread into account in your safety factors.
 


Dear all,

anyboday please be able to help point me in the right direction to get the data Breaking strain for Steel En1A (BS 970)

i have Data
young's modulus=207000MPa
Poisson’s ratio : 0.3
Yield stress : 305MPa
Breaking stress : 480MPa
Thanks in Advance,
