Question: A beam subjected to axial loading will experience an axial stress, a . If , in addition, the beam is subjected to a bending load,

A beam subjected to axial loading will experience an axial stress, a. If, in addition, the beam is subjected to a bending load, a bending stress, b, will also occur at the outer fibers (top and bottom surfaces) of the beam. The maximum stress at the outer fibers of the beam will be max=a+b. Assume that a and b are independent.
Given: ?bar()a=80.0MPa,hat()a=8.00MPa,bar()b=379.0MPa, and hat()b=19.90MPa.
The rod is made of a steel with ?bar(S)y=553MPa and hat()Sy=42.7MPa. Assuming the strength and stresses have normal distributions, determine the design factor and the reliability guarding against yielding.
The design factor is (Round the final answer to three decimal places.)
The reliability guarding against yielding is %.
