YIELD STRENGTH - In tensile testing, the yield strength is measured by the applied load, which permanently deforms the specimen. Many steels will, when tested, continue to elongate under a critical load without the addition of further load. This critical load is called Yield Point. The yield point can be observed during tensile testing by the drop of the beam or the drop of the indicator of the testing machine.
