Assertion (A): Skin is idealised as carrying shear but not direct stress.

Reason (R): In a stiffened structure the stringers and caps hold most of the direct-stress-carrying area.

Select the correct answer from the options below.

  • A.A is false but R is true
  • B.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • C.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A
  • D.A is true but R is false

Answer: B

Both are true and the second explains the first. The idealisation reflects where the material actually is, and the skin's own direct-stress contribution is credited by lumping part of its area into the adjacent booms rather than being discarded.
