Engineering Stress Problem Set

This document contains 10 solved problems related to normal stress and deformable bodies. The problems calculate stress in structures like tubes, rods, bars, wires, trusses and other assemblies under various loading conditions. The solutions determine maximum loads or minimum cross-sectional areas to satisfy stress limits in the given materials like steel, aluminum, bronze and wood. Diagrams illustrate the problem setups.

SOLVED PROBLEMS ON NORMAL STRESS

PROBLEM 1 PROBLEM 4
A hollow steel tube with an inside diameter of 100 A rod is composed of an aluminum section rigidly
mm must carry a tensile load of 400 kN. Determine attached between steel and bronze sections, as shown in
the outside diameter of the tube if the stress is limited to Fig. P-107. Axial loads are applied at the positions
120 MN/m2. indicated. If P = 3000 lb and the cross sectional area of the
rod is 0.5 in2, determine the stress in each section.

PROBLEM 2
A homogeneous 800 kg bar AB is supported at either end
by a cable as shown in Fig. P-105. Calculate the smallest
area of each cable if the stress is not to exceed 90 MPa in
bronze and 120 MPa in steel.

PROBLEM 5
An aluminum rod is rigidly attached between a steel rod
and a bronze rod as shown in
Fig. P-108. Axial loads are applied at the positions
indicated. Find the maximum value of
P that will not exceed a stress in steel of 140 MPa, in
aluminum of 90 MPa, or in bronze
of 100 MPa

PROBLEM 3
The homogeneous bar shown in Fig. P-106 is
supported by a smooth pin at C and a cable that runs from
A to B around the smooth peg at D. Find the stress in the
cable if its diameter is 0.6 inch and the bar weighs 6000 lb.

PROBLEM 6
Determine the largest weight W that can be supported by
two wires shown in Fig. P-
109. The stress in either wire is not to exceed 30 ksi. The
cross-sectional areas of wires
AB and AC are 0.4 in2 and 0.5 in2, respectively.

SOLUTION PROBLEM 6

PROBLEM 7
A 12-inches square steel bearing plate lies between an 8-
inches diameter wooden post and a concrete footing as
shown in Fig. P-110. Determine the maximum value of the
load P if the stress in wood is limited to 1800 psi and that in
concrete to 650 psi. PROBLEM 9
Determine the cross-sectional areas of members AG, BC,
and CE for the truss shown in Fig. P-112 above. The
stresses are not to exceed 20 ksi in tension and 14 ksi in
compression. A reduced stress in compression is specified
to reduce the danger of buckling.

PROBLEM 8
For the truss shown in Fig. P-111, calculate the stresses in
members CE, DE, and DF. The cross sectional area of
each member is 1.8 in2. Indicate tension (T) or
compression(C).

2
PROBLEM 10
Find the stresses in members BC, BD, and CF for the truss
shown in Fig. P-113. Indicate the tension or compression.
The cross sectional area of each member is 1600 mm2.
