I'm looking for a short list of military handbooks that contain material property information.
I know MIL-HDBK-17 is for composites.
I know MIL-HDBK-5 is for metals (although canceled).
Any other HDBKs out there for other material types: wood; base polymers like LDPE, Polycarbonate, PTFE, etc. that don't have fiber reinforcement; ceramics that aren't in HDBK-17-5?
I'll take references to the SAE, ASTM, and AMS specs also. Let me clarify, if there is an index of specifications, since above referenced organizations have hundreds of standards, I'll take that list.
The reason is purely laziness and economy. I can't use matweb because they don't have the statistical minimum values that are conservative for use in analysis. And, I'm tired of randomly searching websites of standards organizations for a keyword that may be in their spec, to spend money on the spec, to find out it doesn't have the level of detailed information that I require, only to start the process all over again.
There has got to be some analysts out there who have amassed a pretty good selection of references to get materials properties. I'd like to take a look at your list.
Thanks.
