Materials
Properties used by the calculators, for example the Euler buckling calculation. Indicative values — for a specific alloy or grade the material certificate remains authoritative.
| Material | Young's modulus (N/mm²) | Rp0.2 indicative (N/mm²) |
|---|---|---|
| Staal | 210.000 | 235 |
| RVS | 193.000 | 215 |
| Aluminium (6082-T6) | 70.000 | 240 |
| Messing | 100.000 | 130 |
| Kunststof (indicatief) | 3.000 | 50 |

Aluminium is explicitly 6082-T6 (a hard temper); soft/annealed aluminium already yields at 30-100 N/mm². These values are used in, among others, the buckling calculation.
A more extensive materials database (density, thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance) is planned for Mechify.
