Question 1

What occurs during instantaneous strain?

  • Immediate deformation upon loading
  • Gradual deformation over time
  • Failure of structure

💡 Hint: Consider what happens right away when a load is applied.

Question 2

True or False: Tertiary creep is characterized by a steady increase in strain.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Think of the characteristics of the stages.
