A normal stress is a stress that occurs when a member is loaded by an axial force. The value of the normal force for any prismatic section is simply the force divided by the cross sectional area. A normal stress will occur when a member is placed in tension or compression.
The maximum shear stress is themaximum concentrated shear force in a small area. It is very critical for a structural engineer to locate and evaluate the maximum shear stress in a member in order to design the member in such a way to resist it.
