Hi Guys,
How do I calculate a maximum shear strength of of the pin?
I know what the diameter of the pin is and also what yield strength of the material is.
I am surprised that there is nothing online regarding this. Could tell me the formula?

The value 0.577 is from the distortion energy theory, strain strain energy theory or Von Mises-Hencky theory.
maximum shear stress = (1/3)^(-2) * maximum tensile yield = 1/1.732 * maximum tensile yield = 0.577 * maximum tensile yield.
