A sign is supported by a pipe (see figure) having an outer diameter 110 mm and inner diameter 90 mm. The dimensions of the sign are 2.0 m X 1.0 m, and its lower edge is 3.0 m above the base. Note that the center of gravity of the sign is 1.05 m from the axis of the pipe. The wind pressure against the sign is 1.5 kPa.

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
An aluminum pole for a street light weighs 4600 N and supports an arm that weighs 660 N (see figure). The center of gravity of the arm is 1.2 m from the axis of the pole, A wind force of 300 N also acts in the (y) direction at 9 m above the base. The outside diameter of the pole (at its base) is 225 mm, and its thickness is 18 mm. Determine the maximum tensile and compressive stresses o, and e1., respectively, in the pole (at its base) due to the weights and the wind force.
Two bars AC and BC of the same material support a vertical load P (see figure). The length L of the horizontal bar is fixed, but the angle fl can be varied by moving support A vertically and changing the length of bar AC to correspond with the new position of support A. The allowable stresses in the bars are the same in tension and compression. When the angle ft is reduced, bar AC becomes shorter, but the cross-sectional areas of both bars increase because the axial forces are larger. The opposite effects occur if the angle 0 is increased. Thus, the weight of the structure (which is proportional to the volume) depends upon the angle ft. Determine the angle ft so that the structure has minimum weight without exceeding the allowable stresses in the bars. Note: The weights of the bars are very small compared to the force P and may be disregarded.
