| Introduction:
Strength of material
is affected by many different factors including design,
shape, material composition, dimensions and other
physical properties. The strength of materials is
evaluated in many different ways. Tensile strength and
compression strength are among the most commonly used
properties. Some materials have a high tensile strength
and very low compression strength. Others have a high
compression strength and very low tensile strength. For
an egg the only strength that is important for us is the
compression strength.
