Tensile Strength 2
Tensile Strength 2 : (Techn) (1) The resistance of a solid to elongation when a stretching load is applied. (2) The maximum load in tension that a material will withstand without fracture. Note: Ductile materials stretch considerably and decrease in cross section before breaking. Maximum stress occurs just prior to necking down of the specimen. Tensile strength in this case is calculated from the maximum applied load divided by the original cross-sectional area of the test sample
