FUNDAMENTAL LOADINGS
Note that Eq. (1.7) is valid only in the region up to the proportional limit as it derives
from Eq. (1.3) (Hooke’s law), where the axial stress (σ) is substituted from Eq. (1.1) and 9
the axial strain (ε) is substituted from Eq. (1.2), then rearranged to give the elongation (δ)
given in Eq. (1.7). This algebraic process is shown in Eq. (1.8).

As stated earlier, if the forces acting on the bar were in opposite direction, then the bar
would be loaded in compression, producing a compressive normal stress and a shortening
of the bar.
