Engineering stress is the applied load divided by the original cross-sectional area of a material. It is also known as nominal stress. It can also be defined as the force per unit area of a material. Engineering Stress is usually in large numbers.
While Engineering strain is the amount that a material deforms per unit length in a tensile test. It can also be defined as extension per unit length. It has no unit as it is a ratio of lengths. Engineering Strain is in small numbers.
