Question:

We wish to produce a 1050 steel that has a Brinell hardness of at least 330 and an elongation of at least 15%.
(a) Recommend a heat treatment, including appropriate temperatures, that permits this to be achieved. Determine the yield and tensile strengths that are obtained by this heat treatment. (See Figure 13-9)
(b) What yield and tensile strengths would be obtained in a 1080 steel by the same heat treatment? (See Figure 12-27.)
(c) What yield strength, tensile strength, and % elongation would be obtained in the 1050 steel if it were normalized? (See Figure 13-4)
