Choose the correct answer
A
a definite yield value
B
a chemical composition different from mild steel
C
percentage elongation less than that of mild steel
D
percentage elongation more than that of mild steel
Correct Answer
C. percentage elongation less than that of mild steel
Why is this the answer?
HYSD bars have higher strength but lower ductility (less % elongation) than mild steel and no sharp yield point.
