ESDU - Metallic Materials Data Handbook
ESDU's Metallic Materials Data Handbook (MMDH) is now available on CD-ROM. The MMDH can help simplify an engineer's design process by providing statistically evaluated information on the mechanical and physical properties of civil and military aerospace metallic materials. While developed primarily for the British and European aerospace industries, MMDH is indispensable to overseas contractors for the design, manufacture and service of products and components featuring British and European aerospace materials.

In its electronic format, MMDH provides improved access to a wide range of validated materials information. In addition, the comprehensive search facility will allow engineers to retrieve the design information they need quickly and easily to meet specific design criteria. You can also conduct searches by listing either the requirements of the design or a particular material specification. ESDU is a subscription service and can be conveniently accessed via the Internet. You may subscribe to the complete collection or just a series. For more information, please call IHS Engineering at 800-716-3447 or visit http://www.ihs.com/esdu/.
