Modulus of Elasticity in Allowable Stress Design for Bridges Formulas

The Modulus of Elasticity is the measure of the stiffness of a material. It is the slope of stress and strain diagram up to the limit of proportionality. And is denoted by E. Modulus of Elasticity is usually measured using the Megapascal for Stress. Note that the value of Modulus of Elasticity is always positive.
