Stress P1.1 A stainless steel tube with an outside diameter of 60 mm and a wall thickness of 5 mm is used as a compression member. If the normal stress in the member must be limited to 200 MPa, determine the maximum load P that the member can support. Ans: Pmax = 172.8 kN P1.2 A 2024-T4 aluminum tube with an outside diameter of 90 mm will be used to support a 285 kN load. If the normal stress in the member must be limited to 165 MPa, determine the wall thickness required for the tube. Ans: tmin = 6.59 mm

P1.3 Two solid cylindrical rods (1) and (2) are joined together at flange B and loaded with loads of P = 70 kN and Q = 50 kN as shown in Figure. If the normal stress in each rod must be limited to 210 MPa, determine the minimum diameter required for each rod. Ans: d1 = 20.6 mm - d2 = 32.1mm

P1.7 Two solid cylindrical rods support a load of P = 50 kN, as shown in Figure. If the normal stress in each rod must be limited to 130 MPa, determine the minimum diameter required for each rod. Ans: d1 = 19.96 mm - d2 = 16.13 mm

P1.11 The rigid beam BC shown in Figure is supported by rods (1) and (2) that have cross-sectional areas of 175 mm2 and 300 mm2, respectively. For a uniformly distributed load of w = 15 kN/m, determine the normal stress in each rod. Assume L = 3 m and a = 1.8 m. Ans: 1 = 46.3 MPa - 2 = 63.0 MPa
