the stresses in structural members of different materials
subjected to different loadings
Stress is defined as the internal resisting force
developed in a body due to external deforming force.
This is magnitude of internal resisting force per unit
area.

where σ = Stress developed in the body
P = Internal resisting force set up by the body
A = Cross-sectional area resisting the external force
In SI system, stress is In FPS system, stress is
measured in N/m2 and this measured in lb/in2 and this
unit is specifically called unit is generally written as
Pascal (Pa). psi (p for pound & “si” for
square inch).
A bigger unit of stress in SI
A bigger unit of stress in FPS
is the mega Pascal (MPa).

Basically three different types of stresses can be identified.
These are related to the nature of the deforming force applied
on the body. That is, whether they are
➢ tensile
➢ compressive
➢ or shearing.
Tensile Stresses
The force which tends to stretch or elongate the body is known
as tensile force. The tensile force per unit area is known as
tensile stress

=P/A

Shear Stress
The force which tends to shear off the body is known as shear
force. The shear force per unit area is known as shear stress.
This is also known as tangential stress.
=R/A
=P/A

Bearing Stress
The bearing stress is the contact pressure between two separate
surfaces.

Elastic Limit
The elastic limit is the limit beyond which the material will no
longer go back to its original shape when the load is
removed, or it is the maximum stress that may be developed
such that there is no permanent or residual deformation
when the load is entirely removed.
Yield Point
Yield point is the point at which the material will have an
appreciable elongation or yielding without any increase in load.
Ultimate Strength
The maximum ordinate in the stress-strain diagram is the
ultimate strength or tensile strength.
Rupture Strength
Rupture strength is the strength of the material at rupture. This
is also known as the breaking strength.

Modulus of Resilience
Modulus of resilience is the work done on a unit volume of
material as the force is gradually increased from O to P, in
N·m/m3. This may be calculated as the area under the stress-
strain curve from the origin O up to the elastic limit E (the
shaded area in the figure). The resilience of the material is its
ability to absorb energy without creating a permanent
distortion.
Modulus of Toughness
Modulus of toughness is the work done on a unit volume of
material as the force is gradually increased from O to R, in
N·m/m3. This may be calculated as the area under the entire
stress-strain curve (from O to R). The toughness of a material
is its ability to absorb energy without causing it to break

The ratio of the shear stress τ and the shear strain γ is called
the modulus of elasticity in shear or modulus of rigidity and is
denoted as G, in MPa.
