For polycrystalline Beryllium (Be) specimens, data of yield strength, ultimate strength, elastic modulus, inelastic secant modulus elongation and grain size were obtained by using of material testing machine and metaloscope. It showed that: elastic modulus, inelastic secant modulus were basically independent with grain size; ultimate strength appeared at the end of tension process; relation between rate of yield strength to ultimate strength and elongation was found to be linear, but this rate had no clear correlation with grain size; relation between strength (yield, ultimate) and grain size was satisfied with Hall-Petch equation. Based on test data and analysis above, a bilinear model was given to simulate stress-strain constitutive behavior; an equation expressing relation between elongation and grain size was also derived.
