CALCULATED BREAKING LOAD
The calculated breaking load is not a direct conversion. Kilo Newtons are based on wire strengths at 1 % elongation as required by BS 215 (Metric)
|
|
|
|
Density:
Aluminium: 2.703 grams per cubic centimetre at 20°C;
Steel: 7.80 grams per cubic centimetre at 20°C.
|
|
Coefficient of Linear Expansion:
Aluminium: 23 x 10-6 per °C;
Steel: 1.5 x 10-6 per °C. |
