Materials Properties and Selection
Structural Materials “If we know the dimensions of a given structure and the properties of the materials from which it is made, we can at least try to predict how strong it ought to be and how much it will deflect. As a rule, both the shape and the materials of any structure which has evolved over a long period of time in a competitive world represent an optimization with regard to the loads which it has to carry and to the financial or the metabolic cost”. —J. E. Gordon, The philosophy of design–or the shape, the weight and the cost, in Structures or Why Things Don’t Fall Down (1978)
