The same way that you test the tensile strength of anything - break it in a universal testing machine!
You have to be careful how you hold the rope though - you obviously cannot grip it the way you would grip a metal specimen (since the grips will cut the rope).
Therefore the rope may be locked into special rope-testing grips or tied around a T-bar or pin in a particuar way. As long as the rope breaks n the central "guage length", you have a good result. If it breaks in the region where it is gripped or tied, the result is probably not correct.
You place a specimen of a specific dimension into tensile testing machine (such as made by Instron) and pull on it and measure breaking strength in pounds with a built in or added load cell that is that is very accurate. Tensile strength is this force divided by the specimen cross section area.
You make up a specimen in the shape of a dog bone per ASM standards and load it to failure in a tensile testing machine that has a calibrated load cell. It will measure the failure load then you divide it by the cross sectional area of the specimen to get tensile strength in pounds per square inch
by putting a bunch of stuff on it until it breaks.
You will need to make a test specimen and actually test it in a tensile tester. See the related link for details.
where ever we need the tensile strengthit is nothing but the tensile stress only.... For tensile stree we havea formula called
stress =load/area
The basic unit for measuring tensile strength is the breaking point of the substance being tested.
Tensile strength annealed 207
The tensile strength of concrete is 10% of it's compressive strength.
Tensile strength of Fe410Wa is 410 Mpa Min
tensile strength of astm A672Gr.55
Tensile strength was discovered by Leonardo Da Vinci in the 1800s.
Tensile strength
Tensile strength is a measure of how much stress it takes for an object to break while being pulled.
tensile stress is the force ehich applies on a body and the force exert by this body against this force is called tensile strength... simply tansile strength measure the force required the force to pull yhe body like rope and wire .
its tensile strength :P
Concrete blocks are tested for Compression and Tensile strength.
no iron has any tensile strength

Liquids do not have tensile strength. The equivalent property is viscosity.
