Abstract
In the design and production of structures it is commonly assumed that the raw material supplied in the form of bar, sheet, forgings and castings is homogeneous, isotropic and stress-free. Some failures in service and more in the laboratory have drawn attention to the possible dangers arising from inhomogeneity, directional properties and residual stresses. It is the purpose of the present paper to review the situation with regard to the last, which the production engineer, who has to cope with distortion on machining, at least cannot ignore.
