A medium‐sized, high magnetic field magnet was designed using data on the mechanical properties of Bi/Ag oxide tape superconductors. Due to the poor mechanical properties of tape superconductors, the size of a superconductive magnet is limited to a narrow region of radius and magnetic field. In order to build a large superconductive magnet, key mechanical properties of the Bi/Ag oxide tape superconductors, such as irreversible strain and matrix yield strength, have to be improved significantly.
