'Strength' is not a common thing to measure or talk about in physics, so I think you mean something else. Possibly force, which is measured in Newtons (N)
But to answer the question: The only case I know where the term is used is in material science, and material selection in design. It denotes the maximum amount of force per area of material that the material can handle, for instance before it stretches permanently or breaks. There are two main 'strenghts', namely the yield strength and the ultimate strength, and both are denoted by Pascals (or usually Mega Pascals, MPa). Pascal is nothing more than Force per Area, for which the SI units are Newton and Metre respectively(1Pa=1N/m²).

Loudness is measured in what?
Decibel (dB) is the unit used to measure the intensity of sound. This unit is also used to measure signal strength and amplification values in some scenarios.
What is a gaussmeter?
A Gauss Meter, or magnetometer, is an electronic device that is used to measure the strength of magnetic fields. Gauss Meters are commonly used to measure the strength of magnets and magnetic effects in electronics. They can also be used as metal detectors.
