4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What does a low modulus of elasticity indicate about a material's load-bearing capacity?
Think about how deformation relates to rigidity.
Why is thermal expansion an important factor to consider in engineering designs?
Consider the effects of temperature changes.
What limitation does a low modulus of elasticity indicate for plastics?
Remember the relationship between stiffness and load-bearing abilities.
True or False: Most plastics are non-combustible materials.
Consider the safety aspects of materials used in construction.
Design a small structure using plastic materials. Identify how you will address the limitations of plastics discussed in this section.
Think about each limitation and creative solutions to enhance structural integrity.
Evaluate a hypothetical plastic piping system designed without consideration for thermal expansion. Predict potential problems that may arise.
Consider how temperature variations affect material behavior.
