The permissible bearing stress PDS rivet is 300 N/mm2.
The yield stress of mild steel is fy (By default 250).

Therefore ratio is 300/250=1.2 (ANS).

Note: Where the permissible bearing stress in RIVET and MEMBER both are diff.
As the Permissible bearing stress of MEMBER is 0.75fy.
Permissible bearing stress in PDS RIVET is 300N/mm2.

The question is from wsm as rivet is mentioned. Now design stress in axial tension = 0.6fy and in design bearing stress = 0.75fy.

Now for bolts/rivet, fy is not defined n we take fu which is approx 400 . Hence yield stress for for rivet = 0.6 * 400 = 240.
In bearing stress 0.75fy.
Hence, 0.6/0.75 = 0.8.

Anyone suggest the IS code clause?

300/250 = 1.2 (is the correct answer).

Actually 300/250=1.2 is correct answer for permissible bearing stress to yield stress of mild steel.

250/300= 0.83.
250- yield stress in mild steel.
300- permissible bearing stress in rivet.

Ans = 1.25/1.5 = 0.8333.

250/300= 0.83.
250- yield stress in mild steel.
300- permissible bearing stress in rivet.
