A horizontal bend pipe ABC (see
figure) consists of two
perpendicular parts AB and BC,
having a hollow circular cross
section with an outer diameter
equal to 60 mm. At point C a load
P1=2 kN acts vertically and a
load P2=3 kN acts horizontally
parallel to arm AB. There is also
an internal pressure of 15 bar into
the pipe.
Considering the loads described,
calculate the maximum tensile
stress, the maximum compressive
stress, and the maximum in-plane
shear stress at points p an p,
which are located at support A. p
is located on the side of the
bracket at mid-height and p on
the top of the section.
