Title:
BERYLLIUM SHEET FABRICABILITY PROGRAM
Corporate Author:

Abstract:
The fabricability and material properties program conducted on 0.060- and 0.020-in. beryllium sheet is discussed. Cutting and drilling techniques were investigated. Tensile tests were conducted to evaluate material uniformity. The primary objective of the program, the fabrication and testing of a plate-stringer panel to establish correlation between theoretical and actual design properties, was not attained due to inadequate ductility. The information obtained should advance the use of this type structural material in aerospace vehicles. Author
