1.

Axial loads are applied to the compound rod that is composed of an aluminum segment
rigidly connected between steel and bronze segments. What is the stress in each material
given that P ¼ 10 kN?

2. The uniform beam is supported by two rods AB and CD that have cross-sectional areas of
10 mm2 and 15 mm2 , respectively. Determine the intensity w of the distributed load so that
the average normal stress in each rod does not exceed 300 kPa.

3. If the average normal stress in each of the 20-mm diameter bars is not allowed to exceed
150 MPa,
a. determine the maximum force P that can be applied to joint C?
b. Determine the average shear stress developed in pin A of the truss. Each pin has a
diameter of 25 mm and is subjected to double shear.
4. Rods AC and BC are used to suspend the 200-kg mass. If each rod is made of a material for
which the average normal stress can not exceed 150 MPa, determine the minimum required
diameter of each rod to the nearest mm.

5. The lap joint is connected by four 20-mm-diameter rivets. Assuming that the axial load P=50
kN is distributed equally among the rivets, find (a) the shear stress in a rivet; (b) the bearing
stress between a plate and a rivet; and (c) the maximum average tensile stress in each
plate.

6. The bell crank, which is in equilibrium under the forces shown in the figure, is supported by
a 20-mm-diameter pin at D that is in double shear. Determine (a) the required diameter of
the connecting rod AB, given that its tensile working stress is 100 MPa; and (b) the shear
stress in the pin.
7. For the joint shown in the figure, calculate (a) the largest bearing stress between the pin and
the members; (b) the average shear stress in the pin; and (c) the largest average normal
stress in the members.

8. The cylindrical steel column has an outer diameter of 4 in. and inner diameter of 3.5 in. The
column is separated from the concrete foundation by a square bearing plate. The working
compressive stress is 26000 psi for the column, and the working bearing stress is 1200 psi
for concrete. Find the largest force P that can be applied to the column.
