Thiss module should have provided you with a basic understanding of engineering steels, their development and evolution, their advances in the light of needs in advanced performance and improvement in strength/weight ratio.
Most important, however, is to enable you to:
- Recognize the different types of engineering steels.
- How to select the most appropriate one for a given application.
- How to process it to realize the intended properties.
- How to anticipate and avoid problems both in production and service.
To test your understanding, go to the test on the next page.
