Notes:
1) Mechanical properties of materials are typical. The properties vary to a great extent
depending upon the manufacturing process involved and testing conditions.
2) The cost of the materials are for small quantities ( about 10 lbs). Most of the cost data is
from a single retailer. The cost can be much less (up to 80% less) if the material is bought
from a manufacturer or distributor in large quantities (thousands of pounds).
