An L-shaped reinforced concrete slab 12 Ft X 12 ft, with a 6 Ft X 6 ft cut-out and thickness t = 9.0 in, is lifted by three cables attached at O, B, and D, as shown in the figure. The cables are are combined at point Q, which is 7.0 Ft above the top of the slab and directly above the center of mass at C. Each cable has an effective cross-sectional area of Ae= 0.12 in2. (a) Find the tensile force Tr(i = 1, 2, 3) in each cable due to the weight W of the concrete slab (ignore weight of cables). (b) Find the average stress ov in each cable.

The inclined beam represents a ladder with the Following applied loads: the weight (W) of the house painter and the distributed weight (u) of the ladder itself. Find support reactions at A and B: then plot axial force (N), shear (V), and moment (M) diagrams. Label all critical N, V, and M values and also the distance to points where any critical ordmates are zero. Plot N, V, and M diagrams normal to the inclined ladder. Repeat part (a) for the case of the ladder suspended from a pin at B and traveling on a roller support perpendicular to the floor at A.

Find expressions for all support reaction Forces in the plane frame with load 3P applied at C as shown in the figure. Joints A and D are pin supported, and there is a roller support at joint F.

A truss ABC supports a load W at joint B, as shown in the figure. The length L, of member Aß is fixed, but the length of strut BC varies as the angle is changed. Strut BC has a solid circular cross section. Joint B is restrained against displacement perpendicular to the plane of the truss. Assuming that collapse occurs by Etiler buckling of the strut determine the angle for minimum weight of the strut.
The hoisting arrangement for lifting a large pipe is shown in the figure. The spreader is a steel tubular section with outer diameter 70 mm and inner diameter 57 mm. Its length is 2.6 m, and its modulus of elasticity is 200 GPa.

A long re Lai nine: wall is braced by wood shores set at an angle of 30° and supported by concrete thrust blocks, as shown in the first part of the figure. The shores are evenly spaced at 3 m apart. For analysis purposes, the wall and shores are idealized as shown in the second part of the figure. Note that the base of the wall and both ends of the shores are assumed to be pinned. The pressure of the soil against the wall is assumed to be triangularly distributed, and the resultant force acting on a 3-meter length of the walls is F = 190 kN. If each shore has a 150 mm X 150 mm square cross section, what is the compressive stress
The roof over a concourse at an airport is supported by the use of pretensioned cables. At a typical joint in the roof structure, a strut AB is compressed by the action of tensile forces Fin a cable that makes an angle = 75° with the strut (see figure and photo). The strut is a circular tube of steel (E = 30,000 ksi) with outer diameter d2= 2.5 in. and inner diameter d1= 2.0 in. The strut is 5.75 ft long and is assumed to be pin-connected at both ends. Using a factor of safety n = 2.5 with respect to the critical load, determine the allowable force F in the cable.
