The results from the test are commonly used to select a material for an application, for quality control, and to predict how a material will react under other types of forces. Properties that are directly measured via a tensile test are ultimate tensile strength, maximum elongation and reduction in area. From these measurements the following properties can also be determined: Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio, yield strength, and strain-hardening characteristics.&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

It has two shoulders and a gauge in between. The shoulders are large so they can be readily gripped, whereas the gauge section has a smaller cross-section so that the deformation and failure can occur in this area.&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

Each system has advantages and disadvantages; for example, shoulders designed for serrated grips are easy and cheap to manufacture, but the alignment of the specimen is dependent on the skill of the technician. On the other hand, a pinned grip assures good alignment. Threaded shoulders and grips also assure good alignment, but the technician must know to thread each shoulder into the grip at least one diameter's length, otherwise the threads can strip before the specimen fractures.&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

There are three main parameters: force capacity, speed, and precision and accuracy. Force capacity refers to the fact that the machine must be able to generate enough force to fracture the specimen. The machine must be able to apply the force quickly or slowly enough to properly mimic the actual application. Finally, the machine must be able to accurately and precisely measure the gauge length and forces applied; for instance, a large machine that is designed to measure long elongations may not work with a brittle material that experiences short elongations prior to fracturing.&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

This situation can be minimized by using spherical seats or U-joints between the grips and the test machine.A misalignment is indicated when running the test if the initial portion of the stress-strain curve is curved and not linear.&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
