Structural properties

Structural properties are characteristics of a material or object that describe how it behaves and responds under various forces or conditions. They include attributes like strength (ability to withstand forces without breaking), stiffness (resistance to deformation), elasticity (ability to return to original shape after deformation), ductility (ability to stretch without breaking), and hardness (resistance to surface indentation). These properties help determine how materials are suitable for different applications, ensuring safety and performance in engineering, construction, and manufacturing.
