OTHER PROPERTIES
The resistance of a material to the __________ is found out by dividing the difference in weights of specimens prior to and after ______ with the area of ________.
Abrasion
In many applications, the building materials are required to sustain steady loads for long periods
Creep
When a load is applied to a material, there is a
change in its shape and dimension.
ELASTICITY
two types of deformation
ELASTIC DEFORMATION
PLASTIC DEFORMATION
A deformation is said to be _______ when the solid deforms when it is loaded but returns to its original position when unloaded
Elastic Deformation
A deformation is said to be ______ when the solid retains full or partly the change in shape after the load is removed
Plastic Deformation
When the materials are subjected to a repetitive or fluctuating stress, they will fail at a stress much lower than that required to cause fracture under steady loads.
Fatigue
The ability of a material to resist penetration by a harder body
Hardness
Scale of hardness
Mohs’ scale of hardness
Lowest remarks of hardness
Talc
Highest remarks of hardness
Diamond
The _______ strength of a material is the quantity of work required to cause its failure per its unit volume
Impact Strength
defined as its ability to change its shape under load without cracking and to retain its shape after the removal of load. The _______ materials fail suddenly under pressure without appreciable deformation preceding the failure.
Plasticity and Brittleness
The ability of a material to resist failure under the action of stresses caused by a load
Strength
The failure of a material under the combined actions of abrasion and impact
Wear
material suggest the tendency of the material to combine with other substances, its reactivity, solubility and effects like corrosion, chemical composition, acidity, alkalinity, etc.
