Questions and Answers

_________ exhibiting the behavior shown in Figure 1.3b is called ductile because of its ability to undergo large deformations before fracturing.

Steel

Ductility can be measured by the elongation, defined as _________.

important points in the curve

Upper and lower yield points are close to each other and are treated as a single point called yield point, ________ (Fy).

______ ratio of stress to strain within the elastic range, denoted E and called Young’s modulus, or modulus of elasticity, is the same for all structural steels and has a value of 29,000,000 psi (pounds per square inch) or 29,000 ksi (kips per square inch).

The ______ stress for steel with a stress–strain curve is called the ______ strength and is defined as the stress at the point of unloading that corresponds to a permanent strain of some arbitrarily defined amount. A strain of 0.002 is usually selected, and this method of determining the ______ strength is called the 0.2% offset method.

As previously mentioned, the two properties usually needed in structural steel design are Fu and Fy, regardless of the shape of the stress–strain curve and regardless of how Fy was obtained. For this reason, the generic term ______ stress is used, and it can mean either ______ point or ______ strength.

The various properties of structural ______, including strength and ductility, are determined by its chemical composition. Steel is an alloy, its principal component being iron. Another component of all structural ______s, although in much smaller amounts, is carbon, which contributes to strength but reduces ductility. Other components of some grades of ______ include copper, manganese, nickel, chromium, molybdenum, and silicon. Structural ______s can be grouped according to their composition as follows: 1. Plain carbon ______s: mostly iron and carbon, with less than 1% carbon. 2. Low-alloy ______s: iron and carbon plus other components (usually less than 5%).

Although there is a linear elastic portion and a distinct tensile strength, there is no well-defined ______ point or ______ plateau. The ______ stress for steel with a stress–strain curve of the type shown in Figure 1.5 is called the ______ strength and is defined as the stress at the point of unloading that corresponds to a permanent strain of some arbitrarily defined amount.
