Residual stresses can also be calculated the same way as the stresses due to the external loads is calculated.

Residual stresses can also be calculated the same way as the stresses due to the external loads is calculated. Correct Answer False

Residual stresses have the same role in a component’s strength as common mechanical stresses. However, the stresses due to external loads can be calculated with accuracy, but residual stresses are difficult to calculate. Therefore, it is very necessary to have a reliable method able to measure them with minimum damage to the surface of the casting.
