Hi all. Energia de rompimiento was the best term according to the tire shop owner who sent the certificate for translation.

I suggest you look at brakeing instead of breaking There could be a problem with a misspelling. Please see this in wikipedia

Could this be what you are asking? At what point will a truck tire burst from overinflation?
Most new or undamaged medium radial truck tires can withstand three to four times the recommended pressure before bursting. In fact, the rim usually fails before the tire. ITRA has conducted several burst strength tests on new and used medium radial truck tires with special reinforced rims. The tires were pressurized with water. Most recently, three new tires and 13 used tires were "burst tested" with the lowest pressure burst recorded at 300psi and highest at 540psi for an average of 420psi. All of the test tires failed in the bead area.

Joule I took several courses in Thermodynamics and understand what a Joule is...here is a definition Wikipedia search results for: Joule
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The joule is the derived unit of energy in the International System of Units. It is the energy exerted by a force of one newton acting to move an object through a distance of one metre. Algebraically:
One joule is the amount of energy required to perform the following physical actions:
The work done by a force of one newton travelling through a distance of one metre;
The work required to move an electric charge of one coulomb through an electrical potential difference of one volt; or one coulomb volt, with the symbol C·V;
The work done to produce the power of one watt continuously for one second; or one watt second, with the...more »
