Tensile Force -
The force of pulling something apart. An example would be doing a tensile test on piece of steel to check the tensile strength. They put the piece of steel at a specified size in a machine that uses tensile force and pull apart the test sample. They measure the amount of force necessary to break apart the sample. All steel has a minimum standard of tensile strength required to be called this grade of steel. Compressive Force - The force of compressing an object. A common example is a cement sample compression test. Cements best quality is its compressive strength. This is why it is used as a foundation for buildings. Anyways, the test is placing a cement cylinder at a certain size in a compression machine. It basically squeezes the cement or compresses the cement to the point of rupture. Then they record the amount a compressive force it took to rupture the cement sample. It has to meet a minimum standard to be accepted or they reject the product made from this batch.
The tensile strength of concrete is 10% of it's compressive strength.

Flexural strength is resistance offered against bending.Tensile strength is resistance offered against tensile force.
The compressive strength of Phosphor Bronze is directly proportional to the tensile strength, For example 1/2 hard phosphor bronze has a Tensile Strength of 60 to 75 ksi and a Yield Strength of 45 to 70. For typical engineering calculations, the compressive strength can be considered equal to the yield strength.
Neither tensile strength nor compressive strength is inherently "stronger." Some materials are stronger in tension; other materials are stronger in compression. For example, rope is much stronger in tension than in compression, but concrete is much stronger in compression than in tension.
Compressive force is a force that tends to compress or shorten an object, while tensile force is a force that tends to stretch or elongate an object. In other words, compressive force pushes inward on an object, while tensile force pulls outward on an object.
Compressive strength is generated by a force which is acting into or towards the centre of an object. Tensile strength measures the force required to pull something such as rope.
Apologies for the confusion. In splitting tensile test, a cylindrical concrete specimen is subjected to a diametrical compressive load, leading to a splitting or tensile failure across the plane perpendicular to the applied load. The tensile strength obtained from the splitting tensile test is a measure of the material's ability to resist failure under tensile stresses.

Tensile force is opposite to compressive force. Tensile force acts in the opposite direction, pulling or stretching an object apart, while compressive force pushes or squeezes the object together.

Mostly fatigue if you have reversed (tensile/compressive) stresses.
Tensile strain is a measure of the deformation or elongation of a material in response to tensile (stretching) forces. It is calculated as the change in length divided by the original length of the material. Tensile strain represents how much a material has stretched under tension.
