Unit 7 Properties of materials The final strength of any material used in an engineering component depends on its mechanical and physical properties after it has been subjected to one or more different manufacturing processes. Also, there are several properties that determine the suitability of the material in its initial state for any particular manufacturing process. The initial strength of the virgin material is important, because that strength will affect the ease with which it can be deformed into its required shape and finally, its ability to resist loads during service. Factors which in
