Tensile Testing
The following MATERIAL
PROPERTIES can be evaluated /
determined by TENSILE TESTING:
STRENGTH
DUCTILITY
ELASTICITY
STIFFNESS
Material Properties
STRENGTH - the greatest stress that the material can
withstand prior to failure.
DUCTILITY - a material property that allows it to undergo
considerable plastic deformation under a load before
failure.
ELASTICITY - a material property that allows it to retain
its original dimensions after removal of a deforming load.
STIFFNESS - a material property that allows a material to
withstand high stress without great strain.

Tensile Tester
THE SAMPLE
Before
After
A Stainless Steel
sample is loaded in
the tester.
Terms
Necking: The localized decrease in diameter in a
specimen near the rupture point.
Elastic Deformation Region: The area of a stress strain curve where the specimen will deform under load, yet
return to its original shape when the load is removed.
Necking
Necking occurs as
the sample leaves
the elastic
deformation region
and begins to
deform plastically.
