Question

A ductile hot-rolled steel bar has a minimum yield strength in tension and compression of Syt = 60 kpsi and Syc = 75 kpsi. Using the ductile Coulomb-Mohr theory, determine the factor of safety for the states of plane stress.

Answer 1

2.135

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets make use of these variables

Ox 16.5 kpsi, and Oy --14,5 kpsi

To determine the factor of safety for the states of plane stress. We have to first understand the concept of Coulomb-Mohr theory.

Mohr–Coulomb theory is a mathematical model describing the response of brittle materials such as concrete, or rubble piles, to shear stress as well as normal stress.
