This book explores the relationship between mechanical stresses and failures in brass, a common material used in construction, plumbing, and decorative applications. These failures, known as season cracking, are sudden fractures that can occur sometime after the material has been manufactured or installed without any further outside force applied. The author explores the underlying causes of these failures, particularly the role of internal stresses caused by the manufacturing process. Through a series of experiments and case studies, the author provides readers with practical methods for detecting and measuring these stresses, and discusses how to prevent them from causing catastrophic failures. This book will be of interest to engineers, architects, and other professionals involved in the design and construction of structures and products that utilize brass.
