    Strength of Materials

    Prepared by Alfie Jay A. Aquino

    Simple Stress

    1. A branch of engineering mechanics that deals with the internal effects and deformations that are caused by the
    applied loads.
    2. The component of the resultant force that is perpendicular to the cross section, tending to elongate or shorten the
    bar.
    3. The component of the resultant force lying in the plane of the cross section, tending to shear (slide) one segment of
    the bar relative to the other segment.
    4. The component of the resultant couple that tends to twist (rotate) the bar.
    5. The component of the resultant couple that tends to bend the bar.
    6. A material that all cross sections are the same throughout its length.
    7. A material that has these same physical and mechanical properties throughout its volume.
    8. A material that has these same properties in all directions.
    9. When a body subjected to external loads is sectioned, there is a distribution of force acting over the sectioned area
    which holds each segment of the body in equilibrium. The intensity of this internal force at a point in the body is
    referred to as?
    10. Determine the smallest safe cross-sectional areas of members CD, GD, and GF for the truss shown. The working
    stresses are 140 MPa in tension and 100 MPa in compression. (The working stress in compression is smaller to
    reduce the danger of buckling.)

    11. Find the maximum allowable value of P for the column. The cross-sectional areas and working stresses (σw) are
    shown in the figure.

    12. Determine the Stress in cable BC. Given area for each cable = 200 mm2.
    13. Determine the required cross-sectional area of bar AB and the required diameter of the pin at support C if the
    allowable stresses in tension and shear are 125 MPa and 45 MPa, respectively. (Note: The pins at the supports are
    in double shear. Also, disregard the weights of members AB and BC.)

    14. The piece of wood, 100 mm by 100 mm in cross section, contains a glued joint inclined at the angle y to the vertical.
    The working stresses are 20 MPa for wood in tension, 8 MPa for glue in tension, and 12 MPa for glue in shear. If θ =
    50°, determine the largest allowable axial force P.

    15. Compute the maximum force P that can be applied to the foot pedal. The 6-mm.-diameter pin at B is in single shear,
    and its working shear stress is 28 MPa. The cable attached at C has a diameter of 3 mm. and a working normal
    stress of 140 MPa.

    16. Three wood boards, each 4 in. wide, are joined by the 3/4-in.-diameter bolt. If the working stresses for wood are
    800 psi in tension and 1500 psi in bearing, find the largest allowable value of the force P.

    17. The lap joint is fastened with four 3/4-in.-diameter rivets. The working stresses are 14 ksi for the rivets in shear, 18
    ksi for the plates in bearing, and 20 ksi for normal stress. Find the maximum safe axial load P that can be applied to
    the joint. Assume that the load is equally distributed among the rivets.
    18. The horizontal rigid beam ABCD is supported by vertical bars BE and CF and is loaded by vertical forces P1 = 400 kN
    and P2 = 360 kN acting at points A and D, respectively (see figure). Bars BE and CF are made of steel (E = 200 GPa)
    and have cross-sectional areas ABE = 11,100 mm2 and ACF = 9,280 mm2. The distances between various points on the
    bars are shown in the figure. Determine the vertical displacements δA and δD of points A and D, respectively.

    19. The rigid beam is supported by a pin at A and wires BD and CE.If the load P on the beam causes the end C to be
    displaced 10 mm downward, determine the normal strain developed in wires CE and BD.

    20. The rigid bar is supported by the pin-connected rod CB that has a cross-sectional area of 14 mm2 and is made from
    6061-T6 aluminum. Determine the vertical deflection of the bar at D when the distributed load is applied.

    21.
