Redesign based on allowable shear stress:
σθ = (P Cos θ) / (A / Cos θ) or
Very important conclusions:
σθ = σx Cos2 θ
- Under tension only, shear is automatically present at various planes. τθ = ½ σx Sin 2θ
- The plane of maximum shear is when Sin 2θ = max or when θ = 45.
- Maximum shear = σx /2 = P / 2A
- It is important to study stress transformation and shear failure.

3. σx’ becomes maximum when dσx’ / dθ = 0, or when differentiating the following equation:
we get, tan 2 θp = 2 τxy / (σx - σy) or, exactly at the principal planes, which has shear stress = 0.
The value of the principal normal stresses are:
tan 2 θs = - (σx - σy) / 2 τxy and the value of maximum shear stress τxy is:
Example:
In the general equations, even if the original τxy on the element = 0, then still the shear at any plane (τx’y’)has
a value as a function of normal stresses.

Using the strain rosette shown, the measured values at each stain gauge is as follows:
εa = 8 x 10-4 , εb = -6 x 10-4, εc = -4 x 10-4 c
Determine the principal strains at the point.
εb = -6 x 10-4 = εx cos2 135 + εy Sin2 135 + γxy cos 135 . Sin 135 -4 ε x10-4

and finally convert these principal strains into principal stresses.
Accordingly,

Accordingly, Principal strains = 153 ± R = 272 x10 ; 33 x10
Another Solution:
Approach: from strain rosette readings, we get strains at the point, then we convert them into stresses
and finally calculate principal stresses.
Example
Solution Approach: Since we are given the forces, let’s calculate the

Center = σx / 2 σx
R = [(σx/2) 2 + τxy2] ½
σ1 = σx / 2 + R; σ2 = σx / 2 - R
then, P = 299.3 KN
3) Using TRESCA
