A bracket in the form of a plate is fitted to a column by means of four rivets of the same size, as shown in Fig. A load of 100 kN is applied to the bracket at an angle of 60° to the horizontal and the line of action of the load passes through the centre of the bot- tom rivet. If the maximum shear stress for the material of the rivet is 70 MPa, find the diameter of rivets. What will be the thickness of the plate if the crushing stress is 100 MPa?

Two bars AC and BC of the same material support a vertical load P (see figure). The length L of the horizontal bar is fixed, but the angle fl can be varied by moving support A vertically and changing the length of bar AC to correspond with the new position of support A. The allowable stresses in the bars are the same in tension and compression. When the angle ft is reduced, bar AC becomes shorter, but the cross-sectional areas of both bars increase because the axial forces are larger. The opposite effects occur if the angle 0 is increased. Thus, the weight of the structure (which is proportional to the volume) depends upon the angle ft. Determine the angle ft so that the structure has minimum weight without exceeding the allowable stresses in the bars. Note: The weights of the bars are very small compared to the force P and may be disregarded.
