Problem 3 Problem 3
Consider the structure below. The thickness of beam B-D is tBD. and it is connected to the support
beam (C-F) by a bolt at C , which acts like a pin in single shear. The diameter of the bolt at C is dC.
a) Compute the average shear stress in the bolt at C and the bearing stress at C in beam B-D.
b) Determine the minimum cross-section of rod A-B if the allowable normal stress of
member A-B is allow,AB.
c) The pin at A is in double shear and has diameter dA. Determine the average shear stress
of the pin at A.
d) Assuming that the stress is uniform over the cross-sections of member AB and the pins,
draw a differential element showing:
The stresses at a cross-section of member AB . Use the following coordinate axes to draw the
element: the x axis is parallel to the axis of bar AB with the positive sense going from A to B ,
the positive axis y is 90 counterclockwise to the positive x axis and the positive z axis is
perpendicular to the page (as per the right-hand rule).
The stresses at a cross-section of the pin at point C. Note that the coordinate axes are defined
as: the positive x axis is parallel to the resultant force acting at the pin (with the same sense as
the force), the positive y axis is 90 counterclockwise with respect to the positive x axis, and
the positive z axis is perpendicular to the page (as per the right-hand rule).
Take tBD=12 in,dA=12 in,dC=14 in, and a =1.2 in.
Take 1=20,2=80,P=300lb, and allow,AB=4.5ksi.
