GRAPHICAL METHOD : MOHR’S CIRCLE
Mohr’s circle is a graphical method of finding
normal, tangential and resultant stresses on a
oblique plan. Mohr’s circle will be drawn for the
following cases:
a) A body subjected to two mutually perpendicular
principal tensile stresses of unequal intensities.
b) A body subjected to two mutually perpendicular
principal stresses which are unequal and unlike
(i.e One tensile and other compressive)
c) A body subjected to two mutually perpendicular
principal tensile stresses accompanied by a
simple shear stress.
Q. The tensile stresses at a point across two
mutually perpendicular planes are 120 N/mm2
and 60 N/mm2. Determine the normal,
tangential and resultant stresses on a plane
inclined at 30° to the axis of minor stress.

Sol. σ1 = 120 N/mm2 (Tensile) σ2 = 60 N/mm2 (Tensile)

Step 3: Take any point A and draw the horizontal line through A.
Step 4: Take AB = σ1 = 12 cm and AC = σ2 = 6 cm.
Step 5: Draw circle by taking BC as diameter. Let O is the Centre
o the circle.

Step 6: Draw a line OE making an angle 2θ (i.e 2 x 30 = 60° with OB.
Step 7: Draw ED perpendicular to CB.
Step 8: Join AE
Step 9 : Measure lengths AD, ED and AE
By Measurement :
Length AD = 10.50 cm
Length ED = 2.60 cm
Length AE = 10.82 cm
Normal Stress σn = Length AD X Scale
= 10.50 X 10 = 105 N/mm2
Shear Stress σt = Length ED X Scale
= 2.60 X 10 = 26 N/mm2
Resultant Stress = Length AE X scale
