Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Analysis of Aluminum-Copper Alloys The extensive manufacture of automobiles, motor-cycles, and airships has created a demand for materials which are strong and light and will satisfy the varied requirements in vehicles of these types. Many kinds of special steels and other alloys have been tried for these purposes and at the present time a large number of alloys are used in the construction of a single vehicle. The special steels generally meet the requirement of strength but not that of lightness. There is, however, an exception to the latter in the case of a few steels which have an unusually great tensile strength. In these cases a given weight of steel will give a greater strength than an equal weight of an aluminum alloy. The requirement of lightness has been met largely by alloys of aluminum with various metals which are intended to increase the strength without materially increasing the weight of the alloys.
