Problem 1:
Two circular rods of 50 mm
diameter are connected by a
knuckle joint, as shown in Fig.,
by a pin of 40 mm in diameter. If
a pull of 120 kN acts at each end,
find the stress in the rod and Pin
Problem 2:
A cast iron link, as shown in Fig., is required to
transmit a steady tensile load of 45 kN. Find the
tensile stress induced in the link material at sections
A-A and B-B.
Problem 3:
The crane hook carries a load of 20
kN as shown in Fig. The section at
X-X is circular. Find the stresses in
the inner and outer fibers at the
given section.
Problem 4:
A wall bracket, as shown in Fig., is subjected to a pull
of P = 5 kN, at 60° to the vertical. The cross-section of
bracket is rectangular having b = 3t. Determine the
dimensions b and t if the stress in the material of the
bracket is limited to 28 MPa.
Problem 5:
A punch press, used for
stamping sheet metal, has a
punching capacity of 50 kN.
The section of the frame is as
shown in Fig. Find the
resultant stress at the inner and
outer fiber of the section.
Problem 6:
Determine the required thickness
of the steel bracket at section A-A,
when loaded as shown in Fig. in
order to limit the tensile stress to
70 MN/m2
Problem 7:
A Z-bracket is supported and
loaded as shown in Fig. Compute
the maximum shear stress at
section A-A and at section B-B
Problem 8:
An offset bar is loaded as shown
in Fig. The weight of the bar can
be neglected. What is the
maximum offset (dimension x) if
the allowable stress in tension is
limited to 70 PMa
