An aluminum tube AB with a circular cross section has a sliding support at the base and is pinned at the top to a horizontal beam supporting a load Q = 200 kN (sec figure). Determine the required thickness t of the tube if its outside diameter d is 200 mm and the desired factor of safety with respect to Eu 1er buckling is n = 3.0. (Assume E = 72 GPa.)
A sign for an automobile service station is supported by two aluminum poles of hollow circular cross section, as shown in the figure. The poles are being designed to resist a wind pressure of 75 lb/ft" against the full area of the sign. The dimensions of the poles and sign are hx= 20 ft, /r =5 ft, and h = 10 ft. To prevent buckling of the walls of the poles, the thickness e is specified as one-tenth the outside diameter d. (a) Determine the minimum required diameter of the poles based upon an allowable bending stress of 7500 psi in the aluminum. (b) Determine the minimum required diameter based upon an allowable shear stress of 300 psi.
A rigid L-shaped frame is supported by a steel pipe column AB (sec figure) and is subjected to a horizontal load F = 140 kips. If the pipe has an outside diameter d = 4 in. and a factor of safety of 2.5 is required with respect to Euler buckling, what is the minimum acceptable thickness f of the pipe? Assume that E = 30,000 ksi for AB.
A steel column ( E = 30 X 103 ksi) that is fixed at the base and free at the top is constructed of a W8 x 35 wide-flange member (sec figure). The column is 9.0 ft long. The force P acting at the top of the column has an eccentricity e = 1.25 in. If P = 40 kips, what is the maximum compressive stress in the column? If the yield stress is 36 ksi and the required factor of safety with respect to yielding is 2.1, what is the allowable load Pallow?
The cross section of a column built up of two steel I-beams (S 150 × 25.7 sections) is shown in the figure. The beams arc connected by spacer bars, or lacing, to ensure that they act together as a single column. (The lacing is represented by dashed lines in the figure.) The column is assumed to have pinned ends and may buckle in any direction. Assuming E = 200 GPa and L = 8.5 m, calculate the critical load PCIfor the column.
Rigid bar ACB is supported by an elastic circular strut DC having an outer diameter of 15 in. and inner diameter of 14.4 in. The strut is made of steel with a modulus elasticity of E = 29,000 ksi. Point load P = 5 kips is applied at B. Calculate the change in length of the circular strut DC. What is the vertical displacement of the rigid bar at point B?
AW310 × 74 wide-flange steel column with length L = 3.8 m is fixed at the base and free at the top (see figure). The load P acting on the column is intended to be centrally applied, but because of unavoidable discrepancies in construction, an eccentricity ratio of 0.25 is specified. Also, the following data are supplied: E = 200 GPa, y = 290 MPa, and P = 310 kN. What is the maximum compressive stress max in the column? What is the factor of safety n with respect to yielding of the steel?
A long slender column ABC is pinned at ends A and C and compressed by an axial force F (sec figure). At the midpoint B, lateral support is provided to prevent deflection in the plane of the figure. The column is a steel wide-flange section (W 250 × 67) with E = 200 GPa. The distance between lateral supports is L = 5.5 m. Calculate the allowable load P using a factor of safety n = 2.4, taking into account the possibility of Eu 1er buckling about cither principal centroidal axis (i.e., axis 1-1 or axis 2-2).
A steel pad supporting heavy machinery rests on Four short, hollow, cast iron piers (see figure). The ultimate strength of the cast iron in compression in 50 ksi. The outer diameter of the piers is d = 4.5 in, and the wall thickness is t = 0.40 in. Using a factor of safety of 3.5 with respect to the ultimate strength, determine the total load P that can be supported by the pad.

The upper end of a WE × 21 wide-flange steel column (E = 30 × 103ksi) is supported laterally between two pipes (see figure). The pipes arc not attached to the column, and friction between the pipes and the column is unreliable. The base of the column provides a fixed support, and the column is 13 ft long. Determine the critical load for the column, considering Euler buckling in the plane of the web and also perpendicular to the plane of the web.
