The force applied and the diameter of the diameter of a hardened steel ball is kept constant while four different specimen blocks namely, aluminum, brass, copper and mild steel are penetrated by the indentation steel ball to create different indentations on each of them. The diameters of the indentions allow us to obtain the Brinell Hardness number to predict the hardest and the softest material among them. The experimental data would also allow us to compare the hardness measured with the other published results from other
