Sentence examples for compression stresses from inspiring English sources

In most cases, when high strength concrete is used for the columns and normal strength concrete for the slabs, compression stresses at the support areas of the inner columns exceed the uniaxial compressive strength of the concrete of the slab.

However, the compression stresses implied that creep deformation could have occurred without inducing discernible creep damage.

It yields high dispersion in the bearing capacity of concrete according to the main compression stresses.

Membranes of hides are strong in tension (stresses imposed by stretching forces), but poles must be added to take compression (stresses imposed by compacting forces).

Specimens are grinded which leads to surface compression stresses and increased surface roughness.

The 'equivalent stress' thus provides a mechanism to compare roller compaction stresses with tablet compression stresses and associated solid fractions.

Prestressing places a concrete member in compression; these compressive stresses counteract the tensile bending stresses of an applied load.

Both fiber composite and unreinforced soil specimens were subjected to the pre-compression stresses equivalent to 10%and20%0% of the strength mobilised by the un-precompressed specimens.

The pre-compression stresses were applied after 4 h, 8 h and 24 h of accelerated curing at 40 °C, after which the conditioned specimens were allowed to continue curing under constant conditions.

The third principle stress distribution plots demonstrated high compression stress levels at the lingual alveolar bone (−9.7 kg/mm2) and only mild compressive stress at zygomaxillary buttress (−3.47 kg/mm2) (Figure 16).

In this paper, we are trying to extend it to triaxial compression stress states.
