480 kN (tensile in direction of its length)

900 kN (tensile on 250mm x 80 mm faces)

1000kN (comp. on 250mm x100mm faces)

taking E=200 GN/m2 and 1/m=0.25 find

a). Change in dimensions (height, width and length)

b).  Change in volume of the block

c). Volumetric Strain

c). Values of N and K (Module of Rigidity and Bulk Modulus) for material of the block.

d). Determine the volume difference if the temperature of block increased by 20K.

(Take alpha steel = 11.7 x 10-60C )

e). Discuss the behavioral characteristic for given application Comparing the impact from given mechanical loadings and thermal loadings to the block.
