Structural Application of Aluminum Alloys
The aluminum alloy most frequently used for structural purposes is described in this paper from the standpoint of the designing engineer. The composition, properties, and forms available are given. Shop fabrication and workmanship are described to show that the practice differs very little from that for ordinary steel fabrication. The recommended design stresses for tension, compression, shear, and bearing are included, and the problem of designing to take advantage of the lighter weight is discussed. The paper is concluded with a brief study of the economics of the use of structural aluminum, indicating the extent of the extra costs and in what fields such extra costs may be justified.
