Abstract
A systematic procedure to extract a projected first-grade constitutive equation from a given second-grade one is proposed and proven to be independent of the reference configuration used. The symmetry group of the projected material is shown to contain the first-grade projection of the symmetry group of the original material. The proposed method is illustrated by means of an example.
