It will break or fail. The type of failure will depend on how brittle/ductile it is. Brittle material will break cleanly, while ductile material will deform to varying degrees.

What will happen to a material if the stress exceeds the ultimate stress?

You usually say that the member fractures or fails at its ultimate stressDepending on the properties of the material, as stress increases, a typical metal will undergo elastic deformation, then a region of (nearly) constant plastic deformation, then strain hardening, a period of necking and then fracture.


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.

What type of fault usually occuer because of tension?

There can never be TENSION in the Earth (gravity is squeezing the whole Earth up).So no type of fault can be the product of tension.Faults of varying varieties happen when the relative magnitude of the maximum and minimum compression forces change and or change direction.Normally the vertical force (gravity) is the maximum force and transverse faults (with vertical fault planes) happen the ratio of the horizontal compressive forces (which are at tight angles to one another) exceeds the shear strength of the rock.Normal faults occur when the ratio between the gravity and one or other of the horizontal forces exceeds the shear strength of the rock.Reverse faults occur when the ratio between an horizontal force and the vertical force exceeds the shear strength of the rock.

When ever the stress on the Earth's crust exceeds it's tensile strength.
