Principles of Tensile Testing
Three ways to carryout tensile test: 

 CRL: Rate of increase of the load is uniform with time and rate of


extension is dependent on the load-elongation characteristics of the
specimen.

 CRE: Rate of increase of specimen length is uniform with time (the


load measuring mechanism moves a negligible distance).

 CRT: Pulling one clamp at a uniform rate and the load is applied


through the other clamp. Which moves appreciably to actuate a load
measuring mechanism so that the rate of increase of either load or
elongation is usually not constant.
