Shear Test

Shear strength describe a materials strength against a shear type of structural failure. The shear strength of a component is important for designing the dimensions and materials to be used for the manufacture/construction of the component (e.g. beams, plates, or bolts). Shear applies to all materials designed in a mechanically loaded application.

Shear Test

Shear stress is applied parallel or tangential to a face of a material, as opposed to a normal stress (tensile or compression) which is applied perpendicularly.
