Material Property Literature ?
(OP)
Our reference material on material properties is not comprehensive enough. I have been reccommended the set of two books:
Corrosion by LL Shreir
The set is £200. Can anyone either confirm the usefulness of the materials data in this book or reccomend a less expensive book to achieve the same goal.
We are looking for general data on:
Tensile / shear strengths
Stress strain curve
Yield points
For metals of all kinds
Any similar data on non-metals would always be useful.

By the way, here's a Browser Tip for Engineers I saw in another forum that's been helpful: "To kill pop-up windows and other annoyances on web sites, go into the options or preferences of your browser and turn off 'Javascript' (called 'Scripting' in IE). Since there's almost nothing worthwhile javascript is used for, in most cases you're just as well off without it. Once in a while, for a specific site, you'll have to turn it back on." I can atest to it does speed up some sites. Plus, browsing with "Images" turned off in your browser options also helps; you can then load images on pages only if you so choose.

I would try downloading at night when network traffic is lighter. It's a big pdf file and I had to make many attempts before it came through completely. (I finally downloaded it at night.)
