PROCEDURES

1. The length of specimens using Vernier calliper is measured

2. The thickness and width of specimens is measured
3. The specimens was mount to the jaw grip of tensile test machine. Slightly Stretch on
specimen by turning load anchor clockwise until gauge record a slight reading
4. Extensometer placed on the vertical flat of inner jaw to record elongation of the specimen.
Extensometer is set zero
5. The load anchor turned is clockwise direction until extensometer records a change of 0.1
mm. the load gauge reading recorded
6. Step 5 was repeated for rate change in elongation to 0.2 mm and 0.3 mm.
7. The rate is changed gradually to 0.1, when a load gauge recorded decreasing in reading until
specimen break
8. The final length measured
