1: It depends on the structure, purity and density.

2: Imagine a gobstopper/jawbreaker - a similar material to this format of sugar would be something like lead although bear in mind it would be brittle and therefore hard to clamp to get a decent tensile load.

3: If you want a strong and 'green' material from sugar there is a viaduct built by Brunel that is sealed with sugar (in the form of molasses) and rope, this is still going strong after hundreds of years.

To summarize it is a strong material if used with other materials as a compound material. I would suggest hemp fibre mixed with molasses - the crystals are even stronger but take a while to form. Type in 'rock candy' into a search engine if you want to make a crystal form.

What is the strength of the steel?

You mean tensile strength. Different steels have different tensile strengths. The way they are made (drawn, cast, forged, etc.) is critically important to the tensile strength. By the way--steel is more important for its stiffness than its tensile strength.
