Computer · Strength of Materials
Consider a short column with a rectangular cross-section subjected to an axial load P causing direct compressive stress σd, and a transverse load causing bending stress σb at the extreme fiber. Which of the following represents the combined stress at the extreme fiber where the bending stress is tensile?
- 1σcombined = σd × σb
- 2σcombined = σd - σb✓
- 3σcombined = σb / σd
- 4σcombined = σd + σb
Correct answer
σcombined = σd - σb
