should be at least four times this diameter; 60 mm is common. Gauge length


is used in ductility computations, as discussed in Section 6.6; the standard value is


50 mm (2.0 in.). The specimen is mounted by its ends into the holding grips of the


testing apparatus (Figure 6.3). The tensile testing machine is designed to elongate


the specimen at a constant rate and to continuously and simultaneously measure the


instantaneous applied load (with a load cell) and the resulting elongations (using an


extensometer). A stress–strain test typically takes several minutes to perform and is


destructive; that is, the test specimen is permanently deformed and usually fractured.


[The (a) chapter-opening photograph for this chapter is of a modern tensile-testing


apparatus.]


The output of such a tensile test is recorded (usually on a computer) as load


or force versus elongation. These load–deformation characteristics are dependent


on the specimen size. For example, it will require twice the load to produce the same


elongation if the cross-sectional area of the specimen is doubled. To minimize these

the direction parallel to its length). This applied force produces an elongation of specimen
along its direction and contractions along all directions perpendicular to it. As a result,
the cylindrical specimen will have an increased length (l), a reduced diameter (d), and a
smaller area of cross-section (A), as shown in Figure1.15. Therefore, in addition to the
longitudinal strain[(l≠l 0 )/l 0 =l/l 0 ], we can also define a compressive or lateral strain
as follows:

lateral strain =

The Poisson’s Ratio(‹) is defined as

The negative sign ensures that Poisson ratio is positive, since the longitudinal and axial
strains have opposite signs for most materials. Many metals and other alloys, values
of Poisson’s ratio range between 0.25 and 0.35. Poisson ratio values of some common
materials are given in Table1.1.

For isotropic materials, shear and elastic moduli are related to each other and to
Poisson’s ratio according to
