The allowable shear stress of a weld is 35% of the nominal tensile strenath of the weld metal. If the nominal tensile strength is 66,000 psi, what is the allowable shear stress?

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]23,100\text{ psi}[/tex]

Explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the allowable shear stress

From the given question:

Allowable shear stress = 35 % of normal tensile strength

Given the normal tensile strength, we want to calculate the allowable shear stress

Mathematically:

[tex]Allowable\text{ shear stress = }\frac{35}{100}\times\text{ 66,000 psi = 23,100 psi}[/tex]
