Practical data on how steel holds up at high temperatures – this reference provides engineers with tested stresses and long-term performance insights for design safety.
This edition compiles creep data for seventeen steel types tested above 1000°F and explains the testing methods and equipment used. It helps designers understand how high-temperature conditions affect strength, life, and reliability, guiding safer, more informed structural choices.
- Reliable data on safe stresses and creep behavior for steels at elevated temperatures
- Descriptions of creep testing methods and the apparatus used
- Long-duration results to inform design for safety and long-term performance
- Context for applying creep results to high-temperature structural design
Ideal for engineers and designers working with high-temperature steel structures and long-term performance planning.
