Mechanical testing produces data that may be used for design purpose or a part of welding procedure or operator acceptance scheme. It is important to know the properties of material to enable design of component or structure without failure. 

Some important basic properties covered in the webinar are tensile strength, yield strength, hardness, toughness etc.

For proper selection of material and their safe use, it is important to understand the properties of material.

The webinar will cover understanding of these properties and how these are tested in a laboratory.

Mechanical testing covers wide range of tests hence we have divided this topic in two parts. 

Part 1 of the webinar will cover some of the  basic properties and test methods and Part 2, which will be conducted at a later date will cover  other important properties.
