1. What is a Tensile Test?

Tensile testing is a method for determining the tensile strength of a material by applying force to a test sample until it deforms or fractures.

The test results help to evaluate:

• - Tensile strength.
• - Yield limit.
• - Elongation.
• - Elastic modulus.
• - Flexibility.
• - The load-bearing capacity of the material.

This is the most fundamental and important test in the field of material mechanical properties testing.
