    PERMISSIBLE SHEAR STRESS OF MILD STEEL

    Yes, you are right. In this case, only the part to the right hand side of the hole on section AA is subject to shear stresses in pulling mode.

    PERMISSIBLE SHEAR STRESS OF MILD STEEL

    Dear kingnero, It is for the design of a clevis eye that can fail in both tensile or shear on different planes 'AA' and 'BB' as shown in attached image. Assume it is a pulling type load and the part is in tension. Therefore, it can undergo tensile failure along section 'BB' or shear failure...

    PERMISSIBLE SHEAR STRESS OF MILD STEEL

    Dear EdStainless, Thank you for your response. However, my main question is whether permissible shear stress is 0.577xYS/FoS or 0.577xUTS/FoS. It is for a Hydraulic Application where we use FoS of 2.5. If it is 0.577xYS, then do we need to divide it by a FoS to get the permissible shear...

    PERMISSIBLE SHEAR STRESS OF MILD STEEL

    Hello All, I wanted to know how to work out the Permissible Shear Stress of Mild Steel having Yield Stress (YS) of 230 MPa and Ultimate Tensile Stress (UTS) of 410 MPa. Do you simply do 0.577xYS or do I need to consider a factory of Safety over and above this? 0.577 is 1/√3 and taken from Von...
