Strength of Materials
Assignment no.1

1. The following observations are made during a tensile test on a mild steel specimen 60 mm in diameter
and 210 mm long. Elongation with 40 kN load (within limit of proportionality). l = 0.0304 mm, yield
load = 156 kN Maximum load = 250 kN Length of specimen at fracture = 235 mm. Determine:
(i) Young‟s Modulus of Elasticity
(ii) Yield point stress
(iii) Ultimate stress
(iv) Percentage elongation

2. Find the stresses in each section and total extension of the bar shown in Fig. E = 2.1 x 105 N/mm2.

3. A circular steel bar ABCD, rigidly fixed at A and D is subjected to axial loads of 50 kN and 100 kN at
B and C as shown in Fig. Find the stresses in the sections and load taken at the ends.

4. A mild steel rod of 20mm diameter and 300mm long is enclosed centrally inside a hollow copper tube
of external diameter 30mm and internal diameter of 25mm. The ends of the tube and rods are brazed
together and the composite bar is subjected to an axial pull of 40kN. E for steel and copper is 200
GN/m2 and 100 GN/m2 respectively. Find the stresses developed in the rod and the tube. Also find the
extension of the rod.

5. A reinforced concrete column 500 mm x 500 mm in section is reinforced with 4 steel bars of 20 mm
diameter, one in each corner. The column is carrying a load of 750 kN. Determine the stresses in
concrete and steel bars. Take ES = 210 GPa and Ec = 14 GPa. Also, calculate load carried by steel and
concrete.

6. A solid steel bar 500 mm long and 50 mm diameter is placed inside an aluminum tube 75 mm inside
diameter and 100 mm outside diameter. The aluminum tube is 0.5 mm longer than the steel bar. A
compressive load of 600 kN is applied to the bar and cylinder through rigid plates. Find stresses
developed in the steel and aluminum, take Es = 200GPa and Ea = 70Gpa.
7. The load P is applied on the bars as shown in Fig. Find the safe load P if the stresses in brass and steel
are not to exceed 60 N/mm2 and 120 N/mm2respectively. E for steel = 200 kN/mm2, E for brass = 100
kN/mm2. The copper rods are 40 mm x 40 mm in section and the steel rod is 50 mm x 50 mm in section.
Length of steel rod is 250 mm and copper rod is 150 mm.

8. A steel tube of 20 mm internal diameter and 30 mm external diameter encases a copper rod of 15 mm
diameter to which it is rigidly joined at each end. If the temperature of the assembly is raised by 800C
calculate the stresses produced in the tube. Ex = 2 x 105 N/mm2 Ec = 1 x 105 N/mm2. Coefficient of
linear expansion of steel and copper are 11 x 10-6 per 0C and 18 x 10-6 per 0C.

9. A steel flat 24 mm x 6 mm in section riveted between two aluminum flats of same size at a
temperature of 288 K is shown in fig. If this assembly is subjected to a compressive force of 35kN, find
the stresses developed in each material. To what temperature the assembly can be raised that the stresses
in the materials due to the load are nullified. Es = EA1 = 210 GPa. α s = 12x10-6/K and α Al = 23 x 10-
6/K.

10. A steel rod 5 m long and 25 mm in diameter is subjected to an axial tensile load of 50 kN. Determine
the change in length, diameter and volume of the rod. Take E = 2 x 105 N/mm2 and Poisson ‟s ratio =
0.30.
11. A rectangular bar is subjected to load as shown in the fig. Find the change in volume of the bar.
Take E =200 GPa and Poisson‟s ratio as 0.25

12. A bar of 30mm diameter is subjected to a pull of 60kN. The measured extension on gauge length of
200mm is 0.09mm and the change in diameter is 0.0039mm. Calculate μ and the values of the three
module.
