For homogeneous isotropic materials, simple relations exist between elastic constants (Young's modulus E, shear modulus G, bulk modulus K, and Poisson's ratio í) that allow calculating them all as long as two of them are known:
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young's_modulus for the formulas you need
