Si consideri un'asta soggetta a una forza assiale; di conseguenza, si sviluppa una forza resistiva attraverso l'area della sezione trasversale, che viene definita sollecitazione. L'unità di sollecitazione SI è Newton per metro quadrato.
Ora, consideriamo un elemento della trave reticolare di un ponte soggetto a una forza assiale. Sviluppa forze interne e sollecitazioni normali al piano della sezione trasversale, chiamate sollecitazione normale.
La sollecitazione normale risultante rappresenta una sollecitazione media sulla sezione trasversale, piuttosto che in un punto specifico.
Secondo le condizioni di equilibrio, le forze interne sono uguali alla forza applicata, il che implica che la distribuzione delle sollecitazioni è uniforme, tranne che vicino al punto di applicazione.
Tuttavia, questa distribuzione uniforme è possibile solo se la linea d'azione dei carichi passa attraverso il baricentro della sezione, il cosiddetto carico centrico.
Quando il carico assiale viene applicato eccentricamente, la distribuzione delle forze e delle sollecitazioni non può essere uniforme o simmetrica a causa del momento aggiuntivo creato.
Pertanto, la distribuzione effettiva delle sollecitazioni in un'asta caricata assialmente è staticamente indeterminata e dipende dalla modalità specifica di applicazione del carico.

sforzo normale

Lo sforzo normale è un tipo di sforzo che si verifica quando le forze agiscono perpendicolarmente, o normalmente, all'area della sezione trasversale di un materiale. Questa sollecitazione si verifica spesso nelle strutture sottoposte a carico assiale, ovvero l'applicazione di forza lungo l'asse di un oggetto. Un esempio pratico di ciò, può essere trovato nelle travature reticolari dei ponti.

Quando un'asta è sottoposta a carico assiale, le forze interne e la sollecitazione corrispondente sono normali al piano della sezione, per questo si parla di sollecitazione normale. È importante notare che la sollecitazione rappresenta il valore medio della sollecitazione sulla sezione trasversale, non in un punto specifico. La sollecitazione media viene calcolata dividendo l'entità delle forze interne risultanti distribuite sulla sezione trasversale per l'area della sezione trasversale.

Tuttavia, la sollecitazione in un dato punto può differire dalla sollecitazione media, poiché varia all'interno della sezione. Soprattutto nelle aste sottili soggette a carichi assiali, in prossimità dei punti di applicazione del carico la variazione può essere significativa.

Le condizioni di equilibrio, suggeriscono una distribuzione uniforme delle sollecitazioni negli elementi caricati assialmente, ad eccezione dei punti di applicazione del carico, assumendo un carico centrico. Tuttavia, il carico eccentrico crea sollecitazioni non uniformi a causa di momenti aggiuntivi, indicando una distribuzione delle sollecitazioni staticamente indeterminata.

Normal Stress

normal stress in axial loading

Normal stress acts perpendicular to a material’s cross-sectional area. It appears when a force is applied along the axis of an object, which is called axial loading. Bridge truss members are a practical example of this kind of loading.

When a rod carries axial load, internal forces develop across the section. Because these forces act normal to the plane of the section, the stress is called normal stress. Stress here means the average stress over the whole cross-section, not the value at one exact point.

The average stress is found by dividing the resultant internal force by the cross-sectional area. The stress at a specific point can be different from that average, since it may vary across the section. In slender rods under axial load, that variation can be large near the points where the load is applied.

For a centric load, equilibrium suggests a uniform stress distribution in an axially loaded member, except near the load application points. Eccentric loading changes that pattern. It creates non-uniform stress because extra moments act on the member, so the stress distribution becomes statically indeterminate.

shearing stress

Shear Forces in Bolts and Rivets

Shearing stress is caused by transverse forces acting on an object. These forces create internal forces in the plane where the external forces are applied. The total internal force in that section is called the shear. Average shearing stress is found by dividing the shear by the cross-sectional area. This value is only an average, because shear stress is not spread evenly across the section. It can be zero at the surface and much higher than the average in other areas. Bolts, pins, and rivets...

bearing stress

Bolt-to-Plate Contact Pressure

Bearing stress is the contact pressure between two separate bodies. A common example is a bolt pushed through a plate. The bolt applies a force to the plate, and the plate pushes back with an equal and opposite force. That force is not a single point load. It is made up of many smaller forces spread across the contact surface between the bolt and the plate. Because these microforces are complex, engineers use an average value called bearing stress. Bearing stress is found by dividing the...

applications of stress

Boom and Rod Stress Analysis

Boom and rod stress analysis shows how a pinned support structure carries a load. The boom and the rod are connected by a pin and held in place by brackets and pins. The structure is then separated from its supports so the forces can be studied clearly. A free-body diagram is drawn to identify every force on the boom, the rod, and the load. The reaction forces on both members are found using equilibrium equations. At point P, the reaction causes compression in the boom. At point R, the...

stress on an oblique plane

Axial Load Stress on Inclined Sections

Axial loading creates stress in a material along its central axis. This kind of load can cause compression or elongation, and it produces normal stress. Normal stress acts perpendicular to the material area and can be either tensile or compressive. When the section is not perpendicular to the load, it becomes an oblique plane. On this inclined plane, the stress state includes both normal stress and shearing stress. Shearing stress acts parallel to the area and changes shape without changing...

stress: general loading conditions

Stress Components on a Loaded Body

Stress components on a loaded body can be found by cutting the body through a point with a plane parallel to the xy plane. That section carries the original loads, along with normal forces and shearing forces. The result is a simple way to describe how a structure responds under combined loading. The shearing force in the section can point in different directions within the plane. It is split into two parts that run parallel to the x and y axes. Each part is divided by the area, and as that...

components of stress

Stress Components on a Cube at a Point

Stress components on a small cube help describe how a body behaves under multiple loading. The cube is centered at point O and has stress acting on all six faces, whether the faces are visible or hidden. Normal stress components σx, σy, and σz act perpendicular to the x, y, and z axes. Shearing stress components also act on the cube faces. The visible faces carry shear stresses such as τxy and τxz. The hidden faces carry equal and opposite stresses. This balance keeps the cube in equilibrium.

design consideration

Safety Factors in Structural Design

Safety factors in structural design help engineers choose a material and loading limit that can be used safely. The process begins with a material’s ultimate strength. This value comes from tests that increase force until the material reaches its breaking point or limit. The ultimate load is then divided by the original cross-sectional area to find the ultimate normal stress, or strength. Ultimate shearing stress is another key value used in design. These limits show how much stress a material...
