The bracket is held to the wall using three A-36 steel bolts at B, C, and D. Each bolt has a diameter of 0.5 in. and an unstretched length of 2 in. If a force of 800 lb is placed on the bracket as shown, determine how far, s, the top bracket at bolt D moves away from the wall. For the calculation, assume that the bolts carry no shear; rather, the vertical force of 800 lb is supported by the toe at A. Also, assume that the wall and bracket are rigid. A greatly exaggerated deformation of the bolts is shown.
The post is made of Douglas fir and has a diameter of 100 mm. If it is subjected to the load of 20 kN and the soil provides a frictional resistance that is distributed along its length and varies linearly from w = 4 kN>m at y = 0 to w = 12 kN>m at y = 2 m, determine the force F at its bottom needed for equilibrium. Also, what is the displacement of the top of the post A with respect to its bottom B? Neglect the weight of the post.
The friction pad A is used to support the member,which is subjected to an axial force of P = 2 kN. Thepad is made from a material having a modulus ofelasticity of E = 4 MPa and Poisson’s ratio n = 0.4.If slipping does not occur, determine the normaland shear strains in the pad. The width is 50 mm.Assume that the material is linearly elastic. Also,neglect the effect of the moment acting on the pad.
The bracket is held to the wall using three A-36 steel bolts at B, C, and D. Each bolt has a diameter of 0.5 in. and an unstretched length of 2 in. If a force of 800 lb is placed on the bracket as shown, determine the force developed in each bolt. For the calculation, assume that the bolts carry no shear; rather, the vertical force of 800 lb is supported by the toe at A. Also, assume that the wall and bracket are rigid. A greatly exaggerated deformation of the bolts is shown.
The copper pipe has an outer diameter of 40 mm and an inner diameter of 37 mm. If it is tightly secured to the wall and three torques are applied to it, determine the absolute maximum shear stress developed in the pipe.
The rows of staples AB contained in the stapler is glued together so that the maximum shear stress the glue can withstand is 12 psi. Determine the maximum force F that must be placed on the plunger in order to shear off a staple from its row and allow it to exit undeformed through the groove at C. The outer dimensions are shown in the figure below. The thickness of the staple is 0.05 in. Assume all the other parts are rigid.
The pipe is stuck in the ground so that when it is pulled upward the frictional force along its length varies linearly from zero at B to fmax (force/length) at C. Determine the initial force P required to pull the pipe out and the pipe’s elongation just before it starts to slip. The pipe has a length L, cross-sectional area A, and the material from which it is made has a modulus of elasticity E.
The copper pipe has an outer diameter of 2.50 in. and an inner diameter of 2.30 in.

When the temperature is at 30°C, the A-36 steel pipe fits snugly between the two fuel tanks. When fuel flows through the pipe, the temperatures at ends A and B rise to 130°C and 80°C, respectively. If the temperature drop alongthe pipe is linear, determine the average normal stress developed in the pipe. Assume the walls of each tank act as a spring, each having a stiffness of k = 900 MN>m.
The observation cage C has a weight of 250 kip and through a system of gears, travels upward at constant velocity along the A-36 steel column, which has a height of 200 ft. The column has an outer diameter of 3 ft and is made from steel plate having a thickness of 0.25 in. Neglect the weight of the column, and determine the average normal stress in the column at its base, B, as a function of the cage’s position y. Also, determine the displacement of end A as a function of y.
The rigid bar is supported by the two short white spruce wooden posts and a spring. If each of the posts has an unloaded length of 1 m and a cross-sectional area of 600 mm2, and the spring has a stiffness of k = 2 MN >m and an unstretched length of 1.02 m, determine the vertical displacement of A and B after the load is applied to the bar.
