They will indicate to the purchaser the mechanicalproperties that may be expected of test specimens when made in a die, the test specimens being cast in a test bar die and conformingto the chemical c

45、omposition specified. It should be thoroughly understood that the following figures represent die-cast testspecimens and not specimens cut from commercial die-cast parts. In the tension testing of die-cast brass specimens, the rate ofstressing up to the yield strength shall not exceed 100 ksi (700 M

46、Pa)/min. Exceedingly slow rates of testing may result in creepand hence are to be avoided. Beyond the yield strength, the rate of straining shall not exceed 0.25 in./in.min measured on the gagelength of the specimen.TABLE X1.1 Typical Mechanical Properties of Test SpecimensACopper AlloyUNS No.Tensil

The derived SI unitfor force is the newton (N), which is defined as that force which when applied to a body having a mass of one kilogram gives itan acceleration of one metre per second squared (N = kgm/s2). The derived SI unit for pressure or stress is the newton per squaremetre (N/m2), which has been named the pascal (Pa) by the General Conference on Weights and Measures. Since 1 ksi = 6 894 757P
