It is probable that where every othercondition is the same the cylindrical shape will yield a specimenfrom which might be expected a higher relative elongation inproportion to its tensile strength than could be obtained from thecast-to-size shape. In the three shapes representing the sixth series the barrel-shape specimen shows its superiority in elongation and reductionof area to either of the other shapes, but, as might be expected,was inferior in tensile strength. In the sand-cast specimens representing the seventh series thesame relative high percentage of elongation in proportion to ten-sile strength is shown by the cylindrial specimen. The eighth series consists entirely of specimens which have beensubmitted to heat treatment. (See Sec. VIII.) The two specimens from
