Ultimate shear and ultimate tensile relation
Ultimate shear and ultimate tensile relation
(OP)
Is saying that the ultimate shear allowable is approx. equal to 0.6 times the ultimate tensile allowable if only the tensile allowable is known? I'm trying to "fix" a horribly made appendix and I've never encountered this relation before.

Sxy=0.577 x Sy
The Maximum-Shear-Stress theory states that the yield strength in shear is given by the equation;
Sxy=0.50 x Sy
