Review MODULE 1 – STRENGTH OF MATERIALS


A punch for making holes in steel plates is shown in the figure. Assume
STRESS – unit strength of materials. The stress in any that a punch having diameter d = 20mm is used to punch a hole in an 8-

Normal Stress - either tensile or compressive stress produced


by force acting perpendicular to the area.
Shearing Stress – is produced whenever the applied load
causes sliding to the sections. It is either a single shear or
double shear.
Bearing Stress – is the contact pressure between separate
bodies.
