A500 MPa
B100 MPa
C250 MPa
D1000 MPa
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. 250 MPa
**IS 226 mild steel:** yield ~250 MPa, ultimate ~410 MPa.
**Modern usage:** Fe 415 (HYSD bars, yield 415 MPa), Fe 500, Fe 550. Stainless steel: yield up to 500-1000 MPa.
**Aluminum alloys:** 200-500 MPa.
**Titanium alloys:** 800-1100 MPa.
