31、e case of a material which fails in compression bya shattering fracture, the compressive strength has a very definite value.In the case of materials which do not fail in compression by a shatteringfracture, the value obtained for compressive strength is an arbitraryvalue depending upon the degree of

(E28.01)elastic limit FL2, nthe greatest stress which a material iscapable of sustaining without any permanent strain remain-ing upon complete release of the stress.DISCUSSIONDue to practical considerations in determining theelastic limit, measurements of strain, using a small force rather t

46、hanzero force, are usually taken as the initial and final reference.elongation, El, nthe increase in gauge length of a bodysubjected to a tension force, referenced to a gauge length onthe body. Usually elongation is expressed as a percentage ofthe original gauge length.DISCUSSIONThe increase in gaug

47、e length may be determined eitherat or after fracture, as specified for the material under test.DISCUSSIONThe term elongation, when applied to metals, generallymeans measurement after fracture; when applied to plastics andelastomers, measurement at fracture. Such interpretation is usuallyapplicable

48、to values of elongation reported in the literature when nofurther qualification is given.DISCUSSIONIn reporting values of elongation the gauge length shallbe stated.DISCUSSIONElongation is affected by specimen geometry (area andshape of cross section, parallel length, parallelism, fillet radii, etc.
