MECHANICAL TESTING ROSE SIMON Abstract The experiment consisted of two parts of investigation‚ Mechanical and Creep testing. Under mechanical testing‚ two medium carbon steel (04%) specimens that had been through different heat treatment were tested on tension and for hardness. One had been cold drawn and the other was normalised. The specimens were grinded using fine and coarse silicon carbide paper to give a smooth finishing before testing using a Vickers Hardness testing machine. The
