• Tensile force formulas

  Strain can be written in terms of stress as: Strain = ε = σ/E = stress/modulus of elasticity We can now plug in to calculate strain since we know the value of E = Modulus of elasticity (also called Young's Modulus) = 30 X 10^6 psi.

• maximum tensile and compressive stresses

  To calculate the maximum stress, use equation (1). As section BC is bending downwards, the maximum tensile stress occurs on the bottom surface while the maximum compressive stress occurs on the top surface.
