impurity traces. If it is designated 7075-O, it is in
a soft condition produced by annealing at 775 8F for
a few hours. If it is designated in a hard temper,
7075-T6, it has been solution heat-treated at 870 8F
and aged to precipitation-harden it at 250 8F for
about 25 h.
A similar designation system is used for cast
alloys. Casting alloys may be sand or permanent-
mold alloys.
5.16.2 Finishes for Aluminum
Almost all finishes used on aluminum may be
divided into three major categories in the system
recommended by the The Aluminum Association:
mechanical finishes, chemical finishes, and coat-
ings. The last may be subdivided into anodic
coatings, resinous and other organic coatings,
vitreous coatings, electroplated and other metallic
coatings, and laminated coatings.
In The Aluminum Association system, mechan-
ical and chemical finishes are designated by M and
C, respectively, and each of the five classes of
coating is also designated by a letter. The various
finishes in each category are designated by two-
digit numbers after a letter. The principal finishes
are summarized in Table 5.11.
5.16.3 Structural Aluminum
Aluminum alloys are used in structural appli-
cations because the strength-to-weight ratio is often
more favorable than that of other materials.
Aluminum structures also need a minimum of
maintenance since aluminum stabilizes in most
atmospheres.
Wrought-aluminum alloys for structural appli-
cations are usually precipitation-hardened to
strengthen them. Typical properties of some
aluminum alloys frequently used in structural
applications are in Table 5.12; the range of
properties from the soft to the hardest available
condition is shown.
Structural aluminum shapes are produced by
extrusion. Angles, I beams, and channels are
available in standard sizes and in lengths up to
85 ft. Plates up to 6 in thick and 200 in wide also
may be obtained.
There are economic advantages in selecting
structural aluminum shapes more efficient for
specific purposes than the customary ones.
For example, sections such as hollow tubes,
shapes with stiffening lips on outstanding
flanges, and stiffened panels can be formed by
extrusion.
Aluminum alloys generally weigh about 170
lb/ft3 , about one-third that of structural steel. The
modulus of elasticity in tension is about 10,000 ksi,
compared with 29,000 ksi for structural steel.
Poisson’s ratio may be taken as 0.50. The coefficient
of thermal expansion in the 68 to 212 8F range is
about 0.000013 in/in
