PROPERTIES OF COMBINED BEAM AND PLATE FOR HIGH-STRENGTH STEELS AND TITANIUM

Design information is given to provide ship structural designers with convenient tabulations of the properties of built-up T-beams for the following high-strength materials: HY-80, HY-100, HY-130, and Ti 6Al-4V extra low interstitial. The T-beams are arranged in order of increasing sectional area for each material. Criteria for proportioning the T-beams are included in this report. The unit system used in the tables is English. No attempt has been made to convert to metric units at this time since the majority of structural designs are still done in English units. (Author)
