Results of investigations are said to generally indicate that commercial forgings are of moderately good quality steel, but that qualities which can be induced in small masses are not obtained nor are they to be expected in large masses. With regard to turbine parts, it is concluded that design may be factor of greater importance than quality of steel. Tensile test is said to give good indication of quality of material, though perhaps not sufficient for absolute reliance.
