    This document contains 15 questions about steel properties, composition, heat treatments, alloying, mechanical tests, stress-strain behavior, and analyzing data from a tensile test on a steel specimen. It asks to determine modulus of elasticity, proportional limit, yield stress, ultimate strength, and permanent deformation from loading and unloading the specimen. It also asks if a stress of 155 kN would be safe in design.
