Want Modulus of Elasticity for Aluminum Alloy

2001

Q. I am searching for the modulus of elasticity for the following aluminum alloy:

J.I.S standard --->ADC6br I.S.O standard--->Al-Mg3Si
A.S.T.M standard --->G4A
S.A.E standard --->320
ALCOA standard --->214
A.A standard --->514.0

Thank you.

Sincerely,

A. I have the following for the modulus of elasticity for 514.0: 10.3 x 10(6)PSI. It says that this is the average moduli: Compression modulus is approximately 2% greater than tension modulus. I got this information from "Engineering Properties of Aluminum and Zinc Alloys" from The Aluminum Smelting & Refining Co., Inc
