What are residual stresses?(a) stresses developed during construction(b) stresses developed due to seismic load(c) stresses developed due to vibration(d) stresses developed during manufacturingI had been asked this question at a job interview.Query is from Behaviour of Real Beam in division Design of Beams of Design of Steel Structures

Answer»

The CORRECT choice is (d) stresses developed during manufacturing

Explanation: During the PROCESS of MANUFACTURE,steel sections are subjected to LARGE thermal expansions resulting in yield level strains in sections. As subsequent cooling is not uniform throughout the section, self-equilibrating patterns of stresses are formed. These stresses are called RESIDUAL stresses.
