Question

A rectangular steel block is 4inches long in the x direction, 2inches long in the y direction, and 3inches long in the z direction. The block is subjected to triaxial loading of three uniformly distributed forces as follows: 50kips tension in the x direction, 65kips compression in the y direction, and 55kips tension in the z direction. If v=0.30 and E=29x10^6 psi.

a. What is the total elongation in the x-direction?

b. What is the total elongation in the y-direction?

c. What is the total elongation in the z-direction?

d. Single Uniformly Distributed Load in the x-direction that would produce the same deformation in the z-direction as the original loading

-Draw and label the diagram correctly, No diagram in the solution will be marked wrong. 
-Shortcut solution will be marked wrong.
- Direction of the assumption of the equilibrium equation must be shown, no direction will be marked wrong.

A rectangular steel block is 4 inches long in the x direction, 2 inches long in the y direction, and 3 inches long in the
z direction. The block is subjected to a triaxial loading of three uniformly distributed forces as follows: 50 kips tension
in the x direction, 65 kips compression in the y direction, and 55 kips tension in the z direction. If v = 0.30 and
E = 29 x 10° psi.
