The tensile strength Of steel at va
rious temperatures has been tested
by C. Bach, who has found an increase
up to 300 degrees c., and a decrease
at greater heat. One specimen, for
example. showed a tensile strength Of
twenty-seven tons per square inch at
ordinary temperature, 30.T tons at 800
degrees, and 1871 tons at $50 degrees.
The effects of compression We're less
at 200 degrees than at ordinary tenn
perature or at 300 degrees or higher.
Prolonged action of the load had no
effect on the tensile strength at ordi-
nary temperature, but caused a slight
decrease at 800 degrees and still
greater decrease between 400 degrees
and 500 degrees. 1t is made evident
that steel for steam boilers, piping,
etc, should be tested at higher as well
as ordinary temperature.
