This civil engineering article focuses on tension test or tensile test on mild steel and tensile test procedure.
Tension test is conducted on mild steel, tor steel and high tensile steel to find out different characteristics like Young’s modulus, ultimate strength, and the percentage elongation. Under this type of test, a steel rod is susceptible to tension load with the use of a Universal testing machine(UTM).
The following equipments are used for conducting Tension Test on Steel:
1. Universal Testing Machine(UTM) 2. Extensometer 3. Scale Vernier Calipers 4. Punching tools
