Alloynote: Alloy Bench

A materials engineer reviewing a stack of mill test reports keeps hitting the same uncomfortable entry: the certificate reports sulfur only as “below 0.050”, the order allows 0.030 max, and a spreadsheet will happily call that a pass. Alloynote is a heat-review workbench built to refuse that shortcut. Each case pairs the requirement limits you enter - cited to the exact governing source and revision you typed them from - against values transcribed off the certificate, qualifier by qualifier. The comparison engine runs exact decimal interval arithmetic: less-than, at-least, ranges, and not-detected entries become open or closed intervals, and each property resolves to within, outside, ambiguous, or missing only when the mathematics can prove it. Unit handling converts ksi to MPa, weight percent to ppm, and Fahrenheit to Celsius exactly, and it declines to equate hardness scales such as…
