= (6300/1400)*20 = 90 kg/sq cm.

Please tell me formula.

Length in meter but per Stress in steel in cm2 how it correct?

Maggie said:   9 years ago
What is the formula? Please explain the solution.

Harshad said:   9 years ago
Stress = load/area.
So, area = load/stress.

Babar said:   8 years ago
At = ( load/stress)*length.
At= (6300/1400)*20.
At = 90 cm2.

(6300/1400)*20= 90 is correct but i.e., in cm2-m.
But ans asked in kg/sq.m.

How it is correct?

Viplav said:   8 years ago
I think Unit of the answer is incorrect.

P=permissible stress in steel * Area of steel.
