Continuous cable A DB runs over a small friction less pulley al D to support beam OABC, which is part of an entrance canopy for a building (see figure}. The canopy segment has a weight W = 1700 lb that acts as a concentrated load in the middle of segment AB. (a) What is the maximum permissible value of load P at C if the allowable force in the cable is 4200 lb? (b) If P = 2300 lb, what is the required diameter of pins A, B, and D? Assume that the pins are in double shear and the allowable shear stress in the pins is 10 ksi.
During construction of a highway bridge, the main girders are cantilevered outward from one pier toward the next (see figure). Each girder has a cantilever length of 48 m and an I-shaped cross section with dimensions shown in the figure. The load on each girder (during construction) is assumed to be 9,5 kN/m, which includes the weight of the girder. Determine the maximum bending stress in a girder due to this load.
A large precast concrete panel for a warehouse is raised using two sets of cables at two lift lines, as shown in the figure part a. Cable 1 has a length L1 = 22 Ft, cable 2 has a length L2= 10 ft, and the distance along the panel between lift points Band D is d = 14 ft (see figure part b). The total weight of the panel is W = 85 kips. Assuming the cable lift Forces F at each lift line are about equal, use the simplified model of one half of the panel in figure part b to perform your analysis for the lift position shown. Find the required cross-sectional area AC of the cable if its breaking stress is 91 ksi and a factor of safety of 4 with respect to failure is desired.

A sign of weight W is supported at its base by four bolls anchored in a concrete footing. Wind pressure P acts normal to the surface of the sign; the resultant of the uniform wind pressure is force fat the center of pressure (C.P). The wind force is assumed to create equal shear forces F/4 in the y direction at each boll (see figure parts a and c). The overturning effect of the wind force also causes an uplift force R at bolts A and C and a downward force (— R) al bolts B and D (see figure part b). The resulting effects of the wind and the associated ultimate stresses for each stress condition are normal stress in each boll (h — 60 ksi); shear through the base plate (th = 17 ksi); horizontal shear and bearing on each bolt ( tfur = 25 ksi and cr^ = 75 ksi): and bearing on the bottom washer at B (or D) (abor = 50 ksi).

A palm tree weighing 1000 lb is inclined at an angle of 60º (see figure). The weight of the tree may be resolved into two resultant forces: a force P1= 900 lb acting at a point 12 ft from the base and a force P2= 100 lb acting at the top of the tree, which is 30 ft long. The diameter at the base of the tree is 14 in. Calculate the maximum tensile and compressive stresses et, and ec, respectively, at the base of the tree due to its weight.

A square wood platform is 8 ft × 8 ft in area and rests on masonry walls (see figure). The deck of the platform is constructed of 2-in. nominal thickness tongue-and-groove planks (actual thickness 1.5 in.; sec Appendix CL) supported on two S-ft long beams. The beams have 4 in. × (i in. nominal dimensions (actual dimensions 3.5 in. × 5.5 in.). The planks arc designed to support a uniformly distributed load n ( lb/ft" i acting over the entire top surface of the platform. I be allowable bending stress for the planks is 2400 psi and the allowable shear stress is 100 psi. W ben analyzing the planks, disregard their weights and assume that their reactions are uniformly distributed over the top surfaces of the supporting beams. (a) Determine the allowable platform load Mr. (lb/ft2) based upon the bending stress in the planks. (b) Determine the allowable platform load if-. (lb/ft-) based upon the shear stress in the planks. (c) Which of the preceding values becomes the allowable load alolow on the platform? Hints: Use care in constructing the loading diagram for the planks, noting especially that the reactions are distributed loads instead of concentrated loads. Also, note that the maximum shear forces occur at the inside faces of the supporting beams.
