About this document
Properties and Creep of Lead Alloys by Gutha Giribabu Naidu is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Lead and its alloys have several useful properties but are limited for structural applications due to creep. - Lead continuously deforms at low stresses, ultimately failing at stresses far below its tensile strength, due to creep. - Creep characteristics vary between alloys, with minimum creep rates ranging from 0.01-1% per hour at stresses of 0.05-4 MPa and temperatures of 20-100°C.
