| Following definitions are necessary to
understand the principle of plastic analysis :- 1. Elastic limit : The largest stress that a material can withstand without being permanently deformed is called the elastic limit. 2. Yield point : The stress at which there is an increase in the strain without a corresponding increase in stress is called yield point. 3. Elastic strain : The strain that occurs before the yield point is called elastic strain. 4. Plastic strain : The strain that occurs after the yield point with no increase in stress is called plastic strain. 5. Strain hardening : The range in the plastic zone where additional stress is necessary to produce additional strain is called strain hardening. 6. Yield moment : The moment that will just produce the yield stress in the outermost fiber of the section is called yield moment. 7. Load factor : The ratio of collapse load to the safe working load is known as load factor. | |
