Tensile lab report

  Compare and contrast the tensile strengths of mild steel and aluminium specimens

Objectives
To study the deformation and fracture characteristics of mild steel and aluminium when they are subjected to uniaxial loading
To observe the load extension and stress – strain relationships in both aluminium and mild steel
To study the basics of uniaxial tensile testing.
