    Now, you understand the importance of accommodating the weakest member of the structure.

    Should any similar problem ask for maximum safe value for LOAD, then you must choose the
    least numerical value.

    The final system is:

    W = 61.7 kN

    Example 1a-5. Six steel cables support a circular molding of diameter 2 m. The cables are
    placed equally along the perimeter of the moulding. The moulding weighs 2.50 kN/m.

    a. Compute the tension in each cable.


    b. What is the minimum diameter of each cable if the allowable stress is 124 MPa?

    Solution:

    For a:

    Since you really cannot visualize the forces on the system, you must draw the free body
    diagram.
    From the free body diagram,

    ∑ Fy=0 ; ↑+:6 T ( √310 )=W


    kN
    Where W = 2 π m 2.50( m )
    =5 π kN

    3
    6T ( )√ 10
    =5 π

    For b:

    Given: If T = 2.76 kN from (a) and σ ≤ 124MPa

    Substitute into the formula:


    P T
    σ= =
    A A

    N 2.76 x 1000 N
    124 =
    mm 2
    A

    A=22.258 mm 2

    Since the cross-sectional area is a circle, then,

    π
    A= ( D 2) =22. 258 mm2
    4

    D=5 . 324 mm Ans.
