2. Procedure 1. With a micrometer caliper determine the mean diameter of the steel specimen near its mid-length. Assume the shearing proportional limit is 0.6 of the tensile proportional limit and the shearing modulus of rupture as equal to the tensile strength. Check with the instructor to ascertain tensile strength of the specimen. 2. Compute loading increments that will give at least 10 observations below the shearing proportional limit, several close together near the proportional limit,...
