Concept:

Off-Set Yield Method:

  • The offset yield strength method is an arbitrary method of estimating the elastic limit of a material.
  • Offset yield strength is the stress that corresponds to a point at the intersection of a stress–strain curve and a line that is parallel to the specified modulus of the elasticity line. 
  • This parallel line is offset horizontally by a predetermined amount.
  • The intersection point represents the yield point of the material being tested. 
  • The value of the offset, expressed as a percentage of the strain, is arbitrarily defined by the material testing standard being used. 
  • The most common offset is 0.2%, but this can vary depending on the material.
