Question: A solid 4 3 4 0 HR Steel tie rod of length L r o d = 9 0 0 m m is employed to

A solid 4340 HR Steel tie rod of length Lrod=900mm is employed to compress a Naval Brass bushing of length Lbushing=650mm as shown. The tie rod has a solid circular cross section with diameter drod=22.5mm. The bushing has a hollow circular cross section with outer diameter do=80mm, inner diameter di, and wall thickness t. If F=45kN, determine the minimum wall thickness of the bushing based on the below design requirements:
the displacement of the bottom of the tie rod with respect to the fixed horizontal surface may not exceed total=1.1mm
the normal stress of the bushing may not exceed the yield strength of the bushing material
