Ultimate strength in tension as compared to that in shear for steel is____________________?
Correct answer: C. One and half times
- A. Half
- B. One third
- C. One and half times
- D. One fourth
Explanation
For steel, the ultimate shear strength is commonly about 0.6 to 0.67 of the ultimate tensile strength. Thus, tensile strength is approximately one and a half times the shear strength.
