Non‐Ferrous Metals for Aircraft: The Conclusion of a Complete Survey of the Properties of Aluminium and Magnesium Alloys

At this stage I think that we can usefully give some detailed consideration to the copper‐aluminium alloys, and reference may in this connection be made to the equilibrium diagram shown in Fig. I, which, as in the case of the steels, gives an explanation of, and is a guide to, their behaviour and heat‐treatment.
