Compressive Strength - Mx. stress (load) a material ca withstand before failure in compression., Tensile Strength - Max. stress (load) a material can withstand before failure in tension., Ductility - The ability of a material to be stretched w/o fracturing and be formed into shapes such as very thin sheets or very thin wire., Brittleness - The property of being easily cracked snapped or broken. It is the opposite of ductility and therefor the material has little plasticity and will fail under loading w/o stretching of changing shape., Toughness - The ability to absorb a sudden sharp load w/o/ causing permanent deformation or failure. Tough materials require high elasticity., Stiffness - Ability of an object to resist deformation in response to an applied force., Hardness - The ability to resist erosion or surface wear. Used when surfaces move across each other., Durability - The property to withstand stress (load) for a prolonged time.,
