The allowable stress for S355 steel typically depends on its application and design standards. In general, the yield strength of S355 is around 355 MPa, and the allowable stress is often taken as a fraction of this value, usually around 0.6 to 0.7 times the yield strength, depending on the safety factors applied. For structural applications, this can translate to an allowable stress of approximately 210 to 250 MPa. Always consult relevant design codes for precise calculations.
The allowable stress is the maximum stress that a material can safely withstand without failure, while the factor of safety (FoS) is a ratio that compares the material's strength to the actual applied load. Specifically, the allowable stress is typically calculated by dividing the material's ultimate strength by the factor of safety. A higher factor of safety results in a lower allowable stress, ensuring that structures remain safe under unexpected loads or conditions. Thus, the relationship ensures that safety margins are built into engineering designs.
A factor of safety against yield is applied to design stress Yield Stress/ Design Stress = Factor of safety The factor of safety varies for different industries; 1.5 is used in structural steel design for buildings; 1.25 or even 1.1 for aircraft/space systems
