Tech/Engineering - Construction / Civil Engineering | | Danish term or phrase: fyk | Source phrase: YS= Tentorstål eller kamstål (fyk ≥ 550 N/mm2)
Is 'fyk' short for flydespænding?
If so, would yield stress be a correct translation? Is there an equivalent abbreviation in English?
Thanks! |

Yes, I'd use the symbol with the subscripts. |
