Topic	Engineers create new substance stronger than steel yet weighing light as plastic
Jabodie 02/06/22 10:24:43 AM #12:	Wow, it says it's ~70 ksi yield and ~1740 ksi stiffness. That is pretty insane. For reference, typical structural steel is around 50 ksi these days (and typically it is undesirable to go higher than that in building applications). It can get much higher than that, especially for steels you want to use for swords and stuff, but still. That elastic modules is a little less than half the typical modulus we might use for concrete. --- <insert sig here> <cite>Jabodie posted [p:962409973] in Engineers ...
