The steel plate is bent into a circular path of radius 10 metres. If the plate section be 120 mm wide and 20 mm thick, then calculate the maximum bending stress. .
The steel plate is bent into a circular path of radius 10 metres. If the plate section be 120 mm wide and 20 mm thick, then calculate the maximum bending stress. . Correct Answer Consider Young’s modulus = 200000 N/mm2
R = 10000 mm; y = 20/2 = 10 mm; E = 200000 N/mm2 By bending equation we have E/R = f/y f = 200000×10 / 10000 = 200 N/mm2.
