Abstract

In the present work, we seek to determine the magnitude of the differences that may occur in the values of the safety factor, and of the stresses generated in tensile and flexural conditions, when mechanical properties such as yield strength are varied, in equal geometric and load considerations for each case. The estimates are obtained by carrying out a comparative analysis of the stresses generated by tensile and bending loads in a flat element and a structural beam with a 50x50x3mm square profile, based on the differences in the mechanical properties of the construction material, A500 steel. The study is based on information from a laboratory test performed for an A500 steel and the ASTM A500C standards. The results indicate a convergence in the values of the general stress states, achieved analytically and with the finite element method, FEM. The field of study is linear elastic.
