This experiment tested tension and bending using strain gages attached to specimens. For tension, a beam with a 0.53" x 0.125" cross-section was loaded incrementally in a universal tester until maximum load. Strain readings were recorded and averaged. A similar procedure was used for a 1" x 1" bending beam in a four-point bend test. Stress-strain curves were plotted from the data. Young's modulus was calculated from the slopes as 26.7 Mpsi for tension and 55.5 Mpsi for bending, with 11% and 85% errors respectively, likely due to faulty equipment or human error. The goals of introducing strain gage concepts and expanding on Hooke's law and modulus of elastic
