Aluminum SourcesAluminum SourcesAluminum, which is made from bauxite, is the most , ,abundant metal in the Earth’s crustwww.enotes.com/earth-science/aluminum
Aluminum is highly recyclableAluminum is highly recyclable.• 65% of all the aluminum ever produced is still in use
• Recycled aluminum uses only 5% of the energyRecycled aluminum uses only 5% of the energy required to produce primary aluminum
• Aluminum can be recycled over and over with no loss of physical propertiesVoreis, Richard D. “Meeting the call for ‘sustainable’ design.”Glass Magazine October 2004. www.glassmagazine.net/articles.php?id=178

loads• Aluminum yield strength tested to 40,000 psi
without steel reinforcementSource: http://www.matweb.com/search/SpecificMaterial.asp?bassnum=MA6061T6
• Blast loads require fenestration material to bendBlast loads require fenestration material to bend and not break to absorb energy
• Easily accomplished with aluminum extrusions
