Why do you study the mechanical


                             properties of metals?





                                       It is incumbent on engineers to


                                       understand how the various mechanical


                                       properties are measured and what these



                                       properties represent; they may be


                                       called upon to design structures/


                                       components using predetermined


                                       materials such that unacceptable levels


                                       of deformation and/or failure will not



                                       occur.
