Question

Consider the following statement associated with theory of failure?

• Maximum distortion energy theory is most appropriate for the ductile material.
• All theories of failure will give similar result under plane (2D) loading condition.
• Coulomb theory of failure is most conservative theory
Select the correct statement.

• A. I and II are correct
• B. II and III are correct
• C. I and III are correct
• D. All are correct

Answer 1

The correct option is C I and III are correct

All theories of failure gives similar result in case of uniaxial loading condition.
