Deformable bodies
●The bodies which change their shape and size
under the application of the external loads or
forces
Internal forces
●Forces that are developed within the body itself so as to balance
the effect of the externally applied forces
●Axial forces, shearing forces, bending and torsional moments are the types of internal forces.
Meaning of stress
●Whenamemberissubjectedtoloadsitdevelopsresistingforces.
●Tofind theresistingforces developedasection plane may bepassed
through the member and equilibriumofany one part may be
considered.
●Each partis inequilibrium under the actionofapplied forces and
internalresistingforces.
●Theresistingforcesmay beconvenientlysplit into normal and parallel
tothesectionplane.
The resistingforce parallelto theplaneiscalledshearing resistance.
The resistingforce normalto thesectional planeiscalledNormalresistingforce.
●All structural membersundergo deformationundertheaction of loads and
at certain magnitude of loading,thefailure ofthemembermay occur.
●However, inmostofthecases,deformationsaresmallandaretherefore
neglected.
●Butitbecomes necessarytostudythedeformation in ordertodetermine
thecondition under which failuremay occur.
●During deformation,thematerial ofthebodyresiststhetendency ofthe

internalresistanceofthematerial, it becomes stable.
●This internalresistancewhichthebodyoffers tocopetheload iscalled
stress.
Stress
●The internal force of resistance per unit area
offered by the body against deformation is known
as stress.
●The external force acting on the body is called the load. The load is applied on the body while the stress is induced in the material of the body.
●Mathematically,
TYPES OF STRESS
SIMPLE OR DIRECT STRESS:
●Simple stress is often called direct stress because it
develops under direct loading conditions.
a)Normal stress: tensile stress, compressive stress
b)Shearing stress
c)Bearing stress
INDIRECT STRESS
a)Bending stress
b)Torsionalstress
Normal stress
●Stress developed when the applied force is in line with the
axis of the member
●In case of axial loading, the resistance offered by the material per unit area along the direction of force is called normal stress.
Tensile stress Compressive stress
Ifelongationofthematerial along

Shearing stress

Bearing stress
●Bearing stressisthecontactpressurebetweentheseparate bodies.
●Itis generally developed inthestructurefastenerssuchasrivets,bolts and
pins.
INDIRECT STRESS
●Stress developed in a member when it is subjected to a
load which is perpendicular to the axis of the member
i.e. transverse loading
●Bending stress
●Torsionalstress
STRAIN
●It is change in dimension to the original
dimension
TYPES:1.Nor: the deformation per unit
length caused by normal force in its direction is called normal strain/ linear strain.
•T Strain corresponding
to tensile stress
•Compressive strain: Strain
corresponding to compressive stress
2. SHEAR STRAIN
●In case of a shearing load, a shear strain will be produced which is
measured by the angle through which the body distorts.
3. VOLUMETRIC STRAIN
●When a member is subjected to stresses, it undergoes deformation in all
directions. Hence, there will be change in volume.
●The ratio of the change in volume to original volume is called volumetric
strain.
4. LATERAL STRAIN
Hooke’s Law
●Robert Hooke, an English mathematician conducted several experiments and
concluded that
When a material is loaded within its elastic limit,
stress is proportional to strain.●This is called Hooke’s law.
whereEis theconstant of proportionality ofthematerial,
knownasmodulus ofelasticityor Young’s modulus,named
after the English scientist ThomasYoung(1773– 1829).
Stress-strain characteristics of mild steel
OAB—represents a straight line,
(obeys Hooke’s law.)
A — limit of proportionality
B — elastic limit
C’/C— represents the
upper/lower yield point
CD — plastic yielding
DE —strain hardening
E—ultimate stress
EF — necking
F — breaking stress
A—representsthelimitofproportionality—the stress beyond which
linear variation ceases.
B—representstheelasticlimit—the maximum stress uptowhicha
specimen regainsitsoriginal length on removalof theapplied
load.Thisstress,ingeneral,isnotmeasured andB isassumedto
coincidewithA.Actually,itis difficulttodeterminetheactual
stress–strain relationinthe elastic range neartheyieldpoint;
proportional and elasticlimitaretherefore consideredtobe
coincident.
●C’/C—represents the upper/lower yield point—the magnitude of
stress corresponding to the upper yield point C’ depends on the
cross sectional shape of the specimen and the type of equipment
used to perform the test. The upper yield point is observed if load is
applied rapidly whereas the lower yield point is observed if the rate
of loading is slow. In many of the structural steel hot-rolled
sections, the upper yield point is not obtained due to residual
stresses from the hot rolling process. Hence, it has no practical
significance. Point C represents the yield point at which there is a
definite increase in strain without any further increase in stress. The
stress corresponding to the lower yield point C is thus yield stress
with a typical magnitude of 250 N/mm2 for mild steel.

SHEAR STRAIN

measured by the angle through which the body distorts.

STRESS CONCENTRATION

pointis equal to the averagestress.
