Tensile Testing Metals

The three metal tensile samples are made from 1018 Steel, 360 Brass and 2024-T3 Aluminum. The properties measured for these samples include Young’s Modulus, Yield Strength, Tensile Strength, Ductility, and Modulus of Toughness. These properties are the same ones found in materials handbooks and databases, and are used by engineers to design bridges, buildings, and machines.
