Mechanical properties needed

Hi all my name is Kieran Dekker and I am in grade 11. I am doing an assignment at the moment and I need to find out the mechanical properties of copper, zincanneal, mild steel and galvabond.

Thanks

Your best resource would be a nearby college or university library. Find books like Handbook of Materials, especially by ASM International. Also, you may go to a search site such as Google.com and search the material names you are looking for. You may find manufacturers. Contact their customer service and get information, if available. Internet is an amazing resource these days!

https://www.matweb.com is a great place to find mechanical properties of various materials. The Copper Development Association is an excellent source for data on copper alloys-- http://properties.copper.org/
