MEDEBOD QUIZ 2

The ability of a material to withstand applied stress without failure is called:

• Elasticity

• Strength

• Toughness

• Ductility

Which stress is mainly considered in designing bolt for truss connections?

• Shear Stress

• Bearing Stress

• Normal Stress

• Tangential Strain

The stress at which a material begins to deform permanently is:

• Ultimate Stress

• Yield Stress

• Proportional Limit

• Working Stress

In a stress-strain diagram, the point where the curve deviates from linearity represents:

• Fracture Point

• Toughness

• Elastic Limit

• Ductility Limit

The maximum stress in a thin-walled cylindrical pressure vessel occurs in the:

• Radial Direction

• Tangential Direction

• Longitudinal Direction

• Diagonal Direction

If a concrete slab under a colum cracks aroung the column area, the failure is due to:

• Punching Shear

• Normal Stress

• Longitudinal Stress

• Axial Tension

Which property explains why a concrete column shortens under load while also slightly expanding laterally?

• Ductility

• Poisson's Ratio

• Resilience

• Bearing Strength

The safe stress that engineers use for the design of steel beams is:

• Ultimate Stress

• Yield Stress

• Allowable Stress

• Tangential Stress

In a cylindrical pressure vessel such as water tank, failure is most expected alonng the:

• Longitudinal Section

• Transverse Section

• Radial Section

• Base Support

A spherical gas storage tank is more efficient than a cylindrical tank because:

• It has lower rupture strength

• It develops equal stresses in all directions

• It avoids tangential stresses

• It has no deformation
