The elevation of the end of the steel beam supported by a concrete floor is adjusted by means of the steel wedges E and F. The b

ase plate CD has been welded to the lower flange of the beam, and the end reaction of the beam is known to be 18 kips. The coefficient of static friction is 0.30 between two steel surfaces and 0.60 between steel and concrete. If the horizontal motion of the beam is prevented by the force Q, determine (a) the force P required to raise the beam, (b) the corresponding force Q

Answer:

a) P ≥ 22.164 Kips

b) Q = 5.4 Kips

Explanation:

GIven

W = 18 Kips

μ₁ = 0.30

μ₂ = 0.60

a) P = ?

We get F₁  and F₂ as follows:

F₁ = μ₁*W = 0.30*18 Kips = 5.4 Kips

F₂ = μ₂*Nef = 0.6*Nef

Then, we apply

∑Fy = 0   (+↑)

Nef*Cos 12º -  F₂*Sin 12º = W

⇒   Nef*Cos 12º -  (0.6*Nef)*Sin 12º = 18

⇒   Nef = 21.09 Kips

Wedge moves if

P ≥ F₁ + F₂*Cos 12º + Nef*Sin 12º

⇒  P ≥ 5.4 Kips + 0.6*21.09 Kips*Cos 12º + 21.09 Kips*Sin 12º

⇒  P ≥ 22.164 Kips

b) For the static equilibrium of base plate

Q = F₁ = 5.4 Kips

We can see the pic shown in order to understand the question.

Answer:

a; P = 15.25 kips

b) Q = 5.4 kips

Explanation:

To understand scenerio, see attached image also.

Consider the forces acting on the system, F1 is the force acting against the direction of P, F2 acting in the along direction of P, N is at angle 12 degrees

Calculating F1, we have;

F1 = µ x 18 = 0.30 x 18 = 5.4 kips

F2 = = µ x N = 0.3N

To be in static condition, sum of forces would be equal to 0

18 = N cos 12 – F2 sin 12

Putting value of F2 and solving above equation for N;

N x 0.915 = 18

N = 19.65 kips

Now the wedge will move if, P > ( F1  + F2 cos 12 + N sin 12)

Putting the values;

P >= 15.25 kips

The corresponding force Q will be equal to F1 = 5.4 kips

Murljashka [212]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

The solid rod shown is fixed to a wall, and a torque T = 85N?m is applied to the end of the rod. The diameter of the rod is 46mm .

When the rod is circular, radial lines remain straight and sections perpendicular to the axis do not warp. In this case, the strains vary linearly along radial lines. Within the proportional limit, the stress also varies linearly along radial lines. If point A is located 12 mm from the center of the rod, what is the magnitude of the shear stress at that point?

Solution :

Given data :

Diameter of the rod : 46 mm

Torque, T = 85 Nm

The polar moment of inertia of the shaft is given by :

$J=\frac{\pi}{32}d^4$

$J=\frac{\pi}{32}\times (46)^4$

J = 207.6 mm^4

So the shear stress at point  A is :

$\tau_A =\frac{Tc_A}{J}$

$\tau_A =\frac{85 \times 10^3\times 12 }{207.6}$

$\tau_A = 4913.29 \ MPa$

Therefore, the magnitude of the shear stress at point A is 4913.29 MPa.

A cylindrical metal specimen having an original diameter of 12.8 mm and gauge length of 50.80 mm is pulled in tension until frac
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

%Reduction in area = 73.41%

%Reduction in elongation = 42.20%

Explanation:

Given

Original diameter = 12.8 mm

Gauge length = 50.80mm

Diameter at the point of fracture = 6.60 mm (0.260 in.)

Fractured gauge length = 72.14 mm.

%Reduction in Area is given as:

((do/2)² - (d1/2)²)/(do/2)²

Calculating percent reduction in area

do = 12.8mm, d1 = 6.6mm

So,

%RA = ((12.8/2)² - 6.6/2)²)/(12.8/2)²

%RA = 0.734130859375

%RA = 73.41%

Calculating percent reduction in elongation

%Reduction in elongation is given as:

((do) - (d1))/(d1)

do = 72.14mm, d1 = 50.80mm

So,

%RA = ((72.24) - (50.80))/(50.80)

%RA = 0.422047244094488

%RA = 42.20%
