Research Investigation of Armor Plate Steels

Abstract

The method of taking hardness readings employed in processing this series of armor plates is by far the most satisfactory one tried. In the majority of cases the hardness obtained from the coupon cut off the steel plate after final drawing was very close to that of the small specimen used as a guide through-out the successive drawing treatments. Subsequent adjustments were made when the final hardness specimen was out of the intended range.
