Best Answer

Tensile strength is one of the basic and important properties of the concrete. The

concrete is not usually expected to resist the direct tension because of its low tensile strength and

brittle nature. However, the determination of tensile strength of concrete is necessary to

determine the load at which the concrete members may crack. The cracking is a form of tension

failure.

What is tensile test?

A sample is tested using a tensile test machine by loading it in a direction along its axis. The load is measured with a load cell, and when the sample breaks its tensile strength is determined by dividing the failure load by its area.

What is the difference between a load-controlled tensile test and a displacement-controlled tensile test?

If the test is set to load-control , it means that the stress will not drop once the fracture become unstable. In displacement control the stress may drop at unstable fracture.
