- When tensile load applied to brittle materials, they break without elongation.

- When tensile load applied to plastic materials, they break after elongation.

- When tensile load applied to elastic materials, they break after elongation.

All materials break after reaching creep point. If apply the bellow creep point energy, plastic materials gains that energy and elongate, elastic materials also gains that energy and elongate.

But it come back to its original position when stress realised but brittle materials are don't elongate.
