Question: A guy cable is thrown over an Ipil post 1 5 0 m m in diameter. The allowable shear stress is 1 . 0 4

A guy cable is thrown over an Ipil post 150mm in diameter. The allowable shear stress is 1.04MPa
parallel to the grain and 1.56MPa perpendicular to the grain. Find the tension in the horizontal cable as
determined by the shearing stresses:
If the Cable is next to the ground (Answer should be: 27.57kN)
If the Cable is 0.90m above the ground (Answer should be: 13.78kN)
