## Overview
Mechanical testing converts "this material feels strong" into numbers with
units and uncertainties. This skill covers the core tests — tensile,
hardness, fracture toughness, fatigue, creep — how to prepare specimens,
extract properties from raw data, and avoid the artifacts that make published
strength values irreproducible.
## When to use
- Measuring strength, ductility, stiffness, or toughness of a new material
- Comparing processing routes or heat treatments quantitatively
- Diagnosing failures: was it overload, fatigue, embrittlement, or a defect?
- Qualifying a material against a standard (ASTM/ISO) for an application
