MOHR’S STRESS CIRCLE

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS

(MCQ) WITH ANSWERS

MCQ on Mohr’s circle increases

knowledge about principal

stresses. Principal stresses are

maximum and minimum normal

stresses. It also gives maximum

shear stress as difference of the

two principal stresses. Find Principal

planes and planes of maximum

shear stress from Mohr’s

stress circle. Radius represents

the value of maximum shear

stress. θ on stressed element

appears as 2θ on Mohr’s circle.

A point on the circumference

represents the state of stress on

an inclined plane within the

stressed element. Make all measurement

of stresses from the pole.

Design a beam independently

on the basis of maximum principal

stress and maximum shear stress.

Finally select a beam giving

maximum dimensions.
