Abstract
The theoretical basis of the experimental determination of reference stresses from model tests is established for one-dimensional and complex stress systems. A graphical method of obtaining the experimental reference stress is presented and used to determine reference stresses for the strain in beams in pure bending and the tip deflection of cantilever beams from room-temperature tests of lead-antimony-arsenic models. The results are compared with theoretical values. It is shown how prototype deformation can be predicted from a test of a model of the component, model material creep data and the strain of a uniaxial prototype material specimen tested at the reference stress. Errors in the prediction of prototype deformations are considered.
