Question

Based on these results, which material would be better to use for constructing an earthquake-resistant structure? Explain.

This experiment was performed in the lab on three specimens, as follows:
C1045-CF
Cast Iron
AL7075-T6
The specimens were tested at different temperatures (i.e. hot, room-temperature, and cold). The
Charpy impact test results are summarized below:
