AWS BAu-1 vs. AWS BVAg-8b

Both AWS BAu-1 and AWS BVAg-8b are otherwise unclassified metals. Both are furnished in the as-fabricated (no temper or treatment) condition. They have a modest 28% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much.

For each property being compared, the top bar is AWS BAu-1 and the bottom bar is AWS BVAg-8b.
