Pianos mainly go flat as a result of changes in humidity that varies between seasons unless there is excellent indoor climate control. The sound board swells with additional humidity which stretches the strings. When the sound board dries out the tension in the strings is lower. It never goes back exactly to the same tension. Tension of strings is directly proportional to pitch. Therefore the piano goes flat. Some strings go flatter than others. Other factors include, metal fatigue and defects in construction that make the structural components unstable. Strings in a piano can exert 20- 30 tons of pressure total.
