All internal forces (and moments) in the book are in bold italics Normal stress that pulls the surface away from the body is called a ten-sile stress.

Normal stress that pushes the surface into the body is called a com-pressive stress.

The normal stress acting in the direction of the axis of a slender mem-ber (rods, cables, bars, columns, etc.) is called the axial stress. The compressive normal stress that is produced when one surface presses against other is called the bearing stress.
