Breaking Length

The tensile strength is often expressed as the breaking length.

This is very useful as an estimate of the ratio of the tensile strength to the substance and is obtained by the following calculation.

Calculation 

Breaking length in metres =

Tensile strength in kg per cm width of test piece x 100000

Substance in g/per square metre
