When the eccentricity of an axial compressive load on a column or masonry section exceeds the permissible limits (e.g., middle-third rule for rectangular sections), the direct stress diagram:
- 1Shows compression on one side and tension on the other side✓
- 2Stays compressive throughout with zero stress at the edge
- 3Remains purely uniform rectangular
- 4Becomes parabolic across the cross-section
Correct answer
Shows compression on one side and tension on the other side
