1.

The ultimate tensile strain in steel is in the range of1. 0.012 - 0.0202. 0.0012 - 0.00203. 0.12 - 0.204. 0.00012 - 0.00020

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 0.0012 - 0.0020

Explanation:

  • Steel reinforcing rods are used in concrete beams to make it carry tension.
  • As concrete is strong in compression but weak in tension and its tensile strength is approx 1/10th of compressive strength. To improve its tensile strength, reinforcement ( steel reinforcing rods ) is embedded in it.
  • Ultimate tensile strain in steel is in the range of = 0.12% to 0.2% = 0.0012 to 0.002
