The table given below specifies Ultimate Strength, Modulus of Elasticity, Yield Point, Compression, Shear POint and other properties of selected engineering materials.

Other mechanical properties of metals include ductility , i.e. their capacity for plastic deformation . Reversible elastic deformation in metals can be described by Hooke's Law for restoring forces, where the stress is linearly proportional to the strain . Forces larger than the elastic limit , or heat, may cause a permanent (irreversible) deformation of the object, known as plastic deformation or plasticity .
