Proof/Yield Strength required for EN1A carbon steel

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the proof or yield strength of EN1A carbon steel, also referred to as 220M07 in BS970. Participants seek specific data regarding yield strength and breaking strain, while also sharing related mechanical properties such as Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio.

Discussion Character

  • Technical explanation
  • Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • Amir requests information on the yield or proof strength of EN1A steel, having already found tensile strength data.
  • Timmay provides a link to a document that may contain relevant data.
  • Amir expresses gratitude for the information provided by Timmay.
  • A participant notes that there is a wide range of reported yield strength values for EN1A steel, suggesting that one might consider using the lowest value for conservative estimates or account for the spread in safety factors.
  • Vinothkumar seeks data on breaking strain for EN1A steel and shares specific mechanical properties, including Young's modulus and yield stress values.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants do not appear to reach a consensus on the exact yield strength values, as there are varying reports and suggestions on how to approach the data.

Contextual Notes

There are limitations regarding the availability of consistent yield strength values, and participants acknowledge the variability in reported data.

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,

Vinothkumar
