All of the statements are correct except When a body is loaded in three axes, the total deformation in one axis is computed as the sum of the deformations in A all three axes. B Elongation/compression of a body in one axis is accompanied by deformation along the other axes. Transverse directions contract when the material is stretched by an axial force. D Poisson's ratio is computed by dividing the axial strain by the lateral strain.
