Materials are generally classified into three categories based on the predominant types of bond. What are these three categories and what are the predominant types of bond in each category? For each category, provide two examples of common materials used by civil engineers.
1. What do you consider when selecting materials for a construction project? 2. Can you draw, define and discuss BCC and FCC unit cells in terms of bonding? 3. Can you explain the strength of bonding in the development of the grain? 4. Explain ionic, covalent and metallic bonds. Give examples. 5. Terms you should know: brittle, plastic, elastic, stress, strain, ductile, yield point, rupture, density, Young's Modulus, Poisson's Ratio, APF. 6. Describe how steel is made. 7. What are the ingredients for making pig iron? 8. Explain the role of carbon in the production of steel. 9. Why do we "heat treat" steel? 10. Structural Steel – shapes, grades, applications, cold- formed, reinforced, corrosion and sustainability.
Define elastic and plastic behaviors at the micro and macro levels.
