Why is there a discrepancy between the yield strength of reinforcing bars (fy= 460 N/mm2) and the design strength of structural steel (py = 275 M/ mm2)? - Quora

Answer (1 of 3): Tensile strength is the amount of stress it will take to break the steel section in tension. Yield strength is the maximum amount of stress it will take to deform the steel section while remaining within its elastic limit. So in S275 steel, the steel will stretch and return to it
