COMBINED STRESSES AND MOHR'S CIRCLE
CHAPTER OBJECTIVES
AFTER COMPLETING THIS CHAPTER, YOU WILL BE ABLE TO:
1. Illustrate a variety of combined stresses on stress elements.
2. Analyze a load-carrying member subjected to combined stress to determine the maximum shear stress on any given element.
3. Determine the directions in which the maximum stresses are aligned.
4. Determine the state of stress on an element in any specified direction.
5. Draw the complete Mohr's Circle as an aid in completing the analyses for the maximum stresses.
