Summary for modulus of elasticity Discussion
modulus of elasticity for aluminum alloy is the main topic, with John W. Wodecki asking for the elastic modulus of several equivalent designations, including J.I.S. ADC6, ISO Al-Mg3Si, ASTM G4A, SAE 320, ALCOA 214, and AA 514.0. David McGoff answered with a specific value for 514.0: 10.3 x 10^6 PSI, noting that this is an average modulus and that compression modulus is approximately 2% greater than tension modulus. He cited Engineering Properties of Aluminum and Zinc Alloys from The Aluminum Smelting & Refining Co., Inc. The thread later includes a separate 2009 question from Ichardt Steyn asking for modulus of elasticity and coefficient of expansion for aluminum grade Class E, 135OU, H14, but no answer is shown in the excerpt. The practical takeaway is that the listed alloy’s modulus is about 10.3 million psi, with a small difference between compression and tension values.

Q. I am searching for the modulus of elasticity for the following aluminum alloy:
J.I.S standard —>ADC6br
I.S.O standard—>Al-Mg3Si
A.S.T.M standard —>G4A
S.A.E standard —>320
ALCOA standard —>214
A.A standard —>514.0
Thank you.
Sincerely,

A. I have the following for the modulus of elasticity for 514.0: 10.3 x 10(6)PSI. It says that this is the average moduli: Compression modulus is approximately 2% greater than tension modulus. I got this information from “Engineering Properties of Aluminum and Zinc Alloys” from The Aluminum Smelting & Refining Co., Inc
