In this article we will discuss about the different types of beams used in the construction. Without beams there will not be any structure which can withstand loads. They are the structural member which helps in bearing loads. If there are no beams, there will be no structure. What is a Beam? The beam is […]

In this article, we will learn about what is elasticity, elastic limit, young’s modulus and modulus of rigidity. These terms keeps an important role in the study of subject strength of materials. Understanding about stress and strain is possible when one must have the knowledge of these terms. Let’s discuss about them one by one.
What is Hooke’s law? It is the general question that is asked in the subject strength of materials. This law gives us a relation between stress and strain. It was given by Robert Hooke in 1660. It is defined on elastic materials. What is Hooke’s Law Statement of Hooke’s Law According to Hooke’s law, when
