JOMO KENYATTA UNIVERSITY OF AGRICULTURE AND TECHNOLOGY Civil, Construction & Environmental Engineering Department. ASSIGNMENT ON TENSILE AND COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH TESTS 2nd YEAR FIRST SEMESTER. ECE 2202. STRENGTH OF MATERIALS 1 SUBMITTION DATE:19/12/2015. PREPARED BY ODHIAMBO BRIAN ODHIAMBO. 1.1 INTRODUCTION One of the principle concerns of an engineer is the analysis of materials used in structural applications. The term structure refers to any design that utilizes materials that support loads and keeps deformation within acceptable limits. Mechanical testing plays an important role in evaluating fundamental properties of engineering materials as well as in developing new materials and in controlling the quality of materials for use in design and construction. If a material is to be used as part of an engineering structure that will be subjected to a load, it is important to know that the material is strong enough and rigid enough to withstand the loads that it will experience in service and not experience failure. These failures may include additional complexities such as stresses that act in more than one direction, where the state of stress may be biaxial or tri-axial. Failure may also be due to components or materials containing flaws and / or cracks that will propagate failure. Still other failure mechanisms may involve stresses applied for extended periods...
