Qa What do you mean by factor of safety?
b Write short note on maximum shear stress theory and maximum distortion energy
theory,
Q Define equivalent twisting moment and equivalent bending moment. State when
these two terms are used in design of shafts.
b A cylindrical shaft made of steel of yield strength MPa is subjected to static
loads consisting of a bending moment of kNm and a torsional of kNm
Determine the diameters of the shaft using two different theories of failure and
assuming a factor of safety of
Q The force acting on a bolt consists of two components an axial pull of kN and a
transverse shear force of kN The bolt is made of steel having SyNmm and
factor of safety is Determine the diameter of the bolt using maximum shear
stress theory of failure?
Qa A rectangular steel plate is welded as a cantilever to a vertical columnand supports
a single concentrated load P as shown in the figure. Determine the weld size if
shear stress in the same is not to exceed MPa.
b A xx xxmm angle is to be welded to a steel plate by fitlet welds as shown in
the figure. If the angle is subjected to a static load of kN find the length of
weld at the top and bottom. The allowable shear stress for static loading may be
taken as MPa
Qa Explain any two of the following terms of the spring:
i Free length;
ii Spring index;
iii Solid height;
iv Spring rate.
b A helical compression spring made of eil empered carbon steel, is subjected to a
load which varies from N to N The spring index is and the design
factor of safety is If the yieldstress in shear is MPa and endurance stress
in shear is MPa Find: i Size of the spring wire, ii Diameter of the spring, iii.
Number of turns of the spring, and iv Free length of the spring. The compression
of the spring at the maximum load is mm The modulus of rigidity for the spring
material may be taken a kNmm
a Discuss the different types of brakes giving at least one practical application for
b With the teip of neat sketches, differentiate between single and multiplate
Qa Gtassify the rivet heads according to Indian Standard specifications.
b Eind the efficiency of the following riveted joints:
ii having a pitch of mm
ii Double riveted lap joint of mm plates mm diameter rivets having
a pitch of mm
Assume permissible tensile stress in plate as MPa permissible shearing stress
in rivets as MPa permissible crushing stress in rivents as MPa
compressive
