Compare the use of a low-strength, ductile material (1018 CD) in which the stress-concentration factor can be ignored to a high-strength but more brittle material (4140 Q&T at 400°F) in which the stress-concentration factor should be included. Given: Fy = 175 lb, Fx = 87.5 lb, and Fz = 131.25 lb.

Step 1 of 3

Case A:

AISI 1018 CD steel,

Fillet radius at wall=0.1 in,

Diameter of bar

From table deterministic ASTM minimum tensile and yield strengths for some hot rolled and cold drawn steels for 1018 CD steel

Tensile strength

Yield strength

The cross section at A experiences maximum bending moment at wall and constant torsion throughout the length. Due to reasonably high length to diameter ratio transverse shear will be very small compared to bending and torsion.

At the critical stress elements on the top and bottom surfaces transverse shear is zero
