STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Allowable Stress for Static Load = Ultimate Tensile Strength/Factor of Safety
σ_al = S_ut/f_s
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Allowable Stress for Static Load - (Measured in Pascal) - Allowable Stress for Static Load is also known as working load and is the ratio of tensile strength and factor of safety.
Ultimate Tensile Strength - (Measured in Pascal) - Ultimate Tensile Strength (UTS) is the maximum stress that a material can withstand while being stretched or pulled.
Factor of Safety - Factor of Safety expresses how much stronger a system is than it needs to be for an intended load.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Ultimate Tensile Strength: 122 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 122000000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Factor of Safety: 2 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

σ_al = S_ut/f_s --> 122000000/2

Evaluating ... ...

σ_al = 61000000

Allowable Stress for Static Load = Ultimate Tensile Strength/Factor of Safety
σ_al = S_ut/f_s

What is factor of safety and why is it required?

There are always approximations in engineering calculations. Hence, the allowed stress is kept less than failure stress, and the ratio of failure stress to allowed stress is called factor of safety.

How to Calculate Allowable stress for brittle material?
