FAQ

What is the Ultimate Shear Stress?
Ultimate Shear Stress is force tending to cause deformation of a material by slippage along a plane or planes parallel to the imposed stress. Ultimate Shear Stress is usually measured using the Newton per Square Millimeter for Pressure. Note that the value of Ultimate Shear Stress is always positive.
Can the Ultimate Shear Stress be negative?
No, the Ultimate Shear Stress, measured in Pressure cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Ultimate Shear Stress?
Ultimate Shear Stress is usually measured using the Newton per Square Millimeter[N/mm²] for Pressure. Pascal[N/mm²], Kilopascal[N/mm²], Bar[N/mm²] are the few other units in which Ultimate Shear Stress can be measured.
