Revision of Design Values of 7075-T7351 and 7075-T7651 Aluminum Plate

Abstract

Basic mechanical property data were developed on 7075-T7651 aluminum plates. The data, consisting of tension, compression, bearing, and shear results, were needed to supplement the data base on the plate material and to allow the calculation of MIL-HDBK-5 design allowables. The bearing test results from this effort were compared to similar results recently published in AFWAL- TR-83-4128. The comparison showed there were significant differences which prompted the retesting of the samples from the reference work. The final analysis concluded the reference bearing data were erroneous.
