Stress
3 Classifications of Stress
Normal Stress, Shear Stress, Bearing Stress
Normal stress develops when a force is applied _______________ to the cross-sectional area of the material
perpendicular
Shear stress is developed if the applied force is _________ to the resisting area.
parallel
Other name for shear stress
tangential stress
The contact pressure between separate bodies.
Bearing Stress
Bearing stress differs from compressive stress, as it is an ______________ caused by compressive forces.
internal stress
The ratio of the change in length caused by the applied force, to the original length.
