Q: For MS bar, percentage elongation at failure is:
  • A. 14%
  • B. 18%
  • C. 21%
  • D. 23%
Correct Answer: Option D - The minimum percentage elongation for mild steel is 23% and the tensile strength of steel is usually taken as 42 to 54 kg/cm². Fe 415 grade– Elongation upto 14.5% Fe 500 grade– Elongation upto 12%
D. The minimum percentage elongation for mild steel is 23% and the tensile strength of steel is usually taken as 42 to 54 kg/cm². Fe 415 grade– Elongation upto 14.5% Fe 500 grade– Elongation upto 12%
