Question

Bars of square and circular cross-section with 0.5 m length are made of a material with shear strength of 20 MPa. The square bar cross-section dimension is 4 cm x 4 cm and the cylindrical bar cross-section diameter is 4 cm. The specimens are loaded as shown in the figure.

Which specimen(s) will fail due to the applied load as per maximum shear stress theory?

Options :

  1. Torsional load specimen

  2. Bending load specimen

  3. None of the specimens

  4. Tensile and compressive load specimens
