Explanation:
Value of the cross-sectional area is as follows.
A =
= 3.45
The given data is as follows.
Allowable stress = 14,500 psi
Shear stress = 7100 psi
Now, we will calculate maximum load from allowable stress as follows.
=
= 50025 lb
Now, maximum load from shear stress is as follows.
=
= 48990 lb
Hence, will be calculated as follows.
= 48990 lb
Thus, we can conclude that the maximum permissible load is 48990 lb.
