Computer · Design of Steel Structures
Why is the 0.2% offset yield method used to determine the design yield strength for high-strength steel tension members?
- 1Because their elastic stress-strain curve remains constant beyond the initial yielding stage
- 2Because their strain continues to increase linearly even after reaching the elastic limit
- 3Because high-strength steel does not exhibit a distinct yield point and a well-defined yield plateau✓
- 4Because their stress-strain curve deviates significantly from the engineering stress definition
Correct answer
Because high-strength steel does not exhibit a distinct yield point and a well-defined yield plateau
