Answer:
The shear strain is 0.05797 rad.
Explanation:
Shear strain is the ratio of change in dimension along the shearing load direction to the height of the plate under application of shear load. Width of the plate remains same. Length of the plate slides under shear load.
Step1
Given:
Height of the pad is 1.38 in.
Deformation at the top of the pad is 0.08 in.
Calculation:
Step2
Shear strain is calculated as follows:
For small angle of ,
can take as
.
Thus, the shear strain is 0.05797 rad.
