One of the most important results of the tests was to throwlight on the question of the amount of work or reduction necessaryin rolling to develop the full physical qualities of the steel. * draws the following conclusion from the tensile testsmade of specimens taken at various stages from the ingot to thefinished rail: The results indicate that the metal in the walls of the ingot takescomparatively little work or reduction to impart to it what may becalled its full physical properties of tensile strength and ductiUty. Theseare reached in the bloom, except at the top end. The axial metal at thebottom of the ingot also soon reaches its full physical properties, but inthe upper
