Question

Read 2-34 through 2-39 of the Steel Construction Manual and answer the following: Name four conditions that tend to cause brittle fracture

Zones of reduced notch toughness

High Charpy V-notch toughness

Cuts with re-entrant corners that include a large radius between cut lines

low-temperature service

Reduced section due to corrosion

Uni-axial plane strain beyond yield strength

Residual stresses from welding

Triaxial stress state

High strain rate loading

a.

Explanation / Answer

The four condition that tend to cause brittle fracture of steel are:

1. Low- temperature service

2. High strain rate of loading

3. High charpy V notch toughness

4. Residual stress from welding.
