What else can I help you with?
What is the upper limit of ultimate tensile strength of ASTM-615A bars above which rejection is recommended?
Why would you reject material that overperformed its tensile-strength specs? The standard for Concrete Reinforcement rebar,astm-615a Grade 60 (60,000 PSI minimum yield strength)
What happen if tensile strength of A36 Material exceed the ultimate tensile strength allowed by ASTM specification?
The raw steel specification A36, has a maximum tensile strength of 80 ksi. This is the same maximum strength as ASTM standards like A307 grade C or F1554 grade 36. I'm not familiar with any other specifications that would use A36 and have a higher maximum strength. The A36 steel would be out of tolerance if it exceeds a 80 ksi tensile. Being out of tolerance in this way could indicate other properties are also out of tolerance in a less favorable way. The steel would be less ductile, for instance, and impact properties might be reduced.
Give you a example of tensile strength?
Take a piece of any material, say a steel rod, or a piece of timber dowel and you grip it at both ends and try to pull it until it breaks. When you do this, you are putting a tensile load on the material. It is said to be 'in tension'. If the material had a cross sectional AREA of say, 1 Square Inch, and the Tensile Load on it was say, 50,000 Pound,then the Tensile load would be 50,000 PSI (pound per square inch). If the material broke apart under that exact load, then we say it has a TENSILE STRENGTH of 50,000 lb/ square inch. Engineers measure tensile strength in either Pound/Squ.inch. OR Pascal. A Pascal (metric system) is Newton per Square Metre. Steel cables used on bridges have a Tensile Load on them at all times. Engineers calculate the cross sectional area of steel cable needed to be safe , and never break apart. Engineers need to know the Tensile Strength of Steel to be able to choose what size cable to use,so that it is quite SAFE and will not break when in Tension. They use safety factors such as 5 (typical) This means they calculate the cross sectional area of a cable which is going to be 5 times as strong as the Tensile Strength of the steel they are using. They then know that it will never break. The Tesile strength at which a material breaks is called its Ultimate Tensile Strength. Engineers never allow the tension in steel to exceed about 1/5th ofthe Ultimate tensile strength of the steel. Modern Steel bars used in steel structures, has an ultimate tensile strength of approx. 80,000 lb/Squ.inch
How do you measure tensile strength of a solid?
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.
What is the tensile strenght of iron?
High tensile steel may have ten times the tensile strength of wood, and more than twice that of mild steel, but it would be a mistake to overestimate the importance of this single quantity, as Fuller seems to do
What is the tensil strength of 6010 5p plus rod?
any electrode with the first two digits 60 are 60000 psi tensile strength ex a 7018 would have 70000 psi tensile strength
What is the difference between tensile strength and tensile modulus?
Tensile strength is the ultimate capacity of the material to resist a tensile load regardless of deflection.Tensile modulus also known as Young's modulus, is a measure of the stiffness of an isotropic elastic material. It is defined as the ratio of the uniaxial stress over the uniaxial strain. It is determined from the slope of a stress-strain curve traced during tensile tests conducted on a sample of the material.
What are the strongest and weakest metals like nickel or lead shots?
Weakest metal would be mercury which is liquid at room temperature, closely followed by Gallium which will melt in your hand. Strongest metal - Uranium which is why they make armor piercing shells out of it.

How much would you have to shake you can of soda to get it to explode.?
It won't explode. The tensile strength of the can is far greater than the pressure the contents are capable of producing.
Are a spiders web stronger than rope?
A rope is made out of many weak strands, woven together to provide a higher tensile strength. If you did the same using a large amount of spider silk, you would have a silk rope with a higher tensile strength than not only a regular rope, but also steel cable.
How do you calculate points for a tensile strength versus composition graph?
"Ultimate Tensile strength", is measured as the number of Kilogram of force needed to fracture a 'unit' of Area of the material. If you choose to use the Units of Kg for the force , and the Unit of Square Cm for the area; then the answer will be in Kilogram per Square Centimetre. You will now realise that it is NOT practical to measure tensile strength of paper because paper is extremely thin and it is not possible to make a piece of paper with an area of 1cmX 1 cm. Paper is usually about one twentieth of a mm thick. However, it you cut a strip of paper exactly 1 cm wide, from a telephone book with the pages clamped very tightly together between 2 strips of wood, and the stack of strips were exactly 1 cm thick; then you would have an area of SOLID paper which would be 1 cm X 1 cm. Now hang weights on it until it breaks apart. The Tension you created on the 1 square cm would be your answer. Different types and qualities of paper will give very different results. In the same way , different types of steel have very different Tensile Strengths. Talk to an Engineer and he will explain the different between 'Ultimate' tensile strength, and 'Safe Working' tensile strength. Steel is an Elastic substance just like rubber, but it Ultimately stops stretching and breaks when its Ultimate tensile strength is reached.
What information would you have to know to determine the toughness of a solid?
To determine the toughness of a solid, you would need to know its tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation at break. Toughness is a measure of a material's ability to absorb energy before fracturing, and it depends on a combination of these properties.
