Working stress

It is the ratio of actual load applied and the original cross sectional area of the specimen.
Mathematically,
Working Stress = Actual axial load applied/Original cross sectional area
Working stress is maximum stress which can be applied during it's service period. In practice we take working stress with in elastic limit by using factor of safety.

I share my knowledge in civil engineering and try to makes it helpful to all studying and practicing civil engineers. Help to improve it.
