The guide is intended to aid design engineers in the selection of general types of materials and is seen to function as a forerunner leading to other, more specific, selection guides.In addition to the conventional engineering properties represented in the bar charts, the following new cost and energy-consumption parameters were defined and represented in bar-chart format: Relative Price, Volumetric Price, Price/Rigidity Ratio, Energy-Consumption/Strength Ratio and Volumetric Energy-Consumption
