The maximum allowable stress is that value beyond which, after applying an appropriate factor of safety its particular strength criterion is exceeded and failure occurs.

For example, if aluminum strength in yield is 35,000 psi, and factor of safety is 1.25, its maximum allowable stress against yield is 35,000/1.25 = 28,000 psi

Is not allowable proper English?

Yes, the term 'not allowable' is correct in English.The word 'allowable' is an adjective, a word that describes a noun: an allowable expense, an allowable activity, etc.The word 'not' is an adverb that can be used to modify the adjective allowable, for example:The gas is an allowable expense but the sandwich is not allowable.It is not allowable to make personal calls while at the front desk.


What is the ultimate stress of mild steel?

Allowable stress would normally refer to design using Allowable Strength Design, also known as working strength design. In this the allowable stress is usually a fraction of the yield strength and can be different for uniform tension and bending. Typically mild steel has a yield strength of about fy=250MPa with allowable stresses in Tension, 0.6fy=150MPa Bending, 0.66fy=165MPa
