1 INTRODUCTION
Aluminium alloys when subjected to an ultimate tensile load develop a nett
ultimate stress which varies according to the presence of holes.
Analysis of tests on various aluminium alloys
to be made depending on material form and hea’
enabled general groupings
The data presented in this section, therefore, hss the /ollowing categories :-
1. Copper based aluminium alloy sheet and plate, naturally aged.
2. Copper and zinc based aluminium alloy sheet and plate, precipitation
treated.
3. Copper based aluminium alley extruded bar, naturaily aged.
4, Copper and zinc based aluminium alloy extruded bar, precipitation
treated.
The reduction factors, presented in Fig. 1-4, to se applied to ultimate tensile
strength (see Section 5 of this volume) are applicable to unfilled holes. Spot
check tests have indicated that they can also be applied to loaded holes.
For sheet and plate the factor is independent of toad direction with respect to
grain flow.
For extruded bar, in the naturally aged condition, the ‘actor given is for bars
loaded in the direction of the longitudinal grain. Tests on 2024-T3 extruded
bar suggests that when loaded in the transverse direction the factors will be
approximately 10% higher than when loaded in the longizudinal direction.
For extruded bar in the precipitation treated condition +t may be assumed that
the factors are independent of grain direction.
Test specimens used to establish reduction factors all nad holes symmetrically
positioned with a minimum edge distance of 4 x D for multi-hole specimens.
