Concept explainers
The column is constructed from high-strength concrete and eight A992 steel reinforcing rods. If the column is subjected to an axial force of 200 kip, determine the required diameter of each rod so that 60% of the axial force is carried by the concrete.

- The column is constructed from high-strength concrete and eight A992 steel reinforcing rods. If the column is subjected to an axial force of 200 kip, determine the average normal stress in the concrete and in each rod. Eachrod has a diameter of 1 in.arrow_forwardThe 304 stainless steel post A is surrounded by a red brass C83400 tube B. Both rest on the rigid surface. If a force of 25 kN is applied to the rigid cap, determine the required diameter d of the steel post so that the load is shared equally between the post and tube. The elastic modulus for brass is 101 GPa and the elastic modulus for steel is 193 GPaarrow_forwardThe rod has a circular cross section. If it is made of an elastic perfectly plastic material, determine the shape factor.arrow_forward
- Determine the vertical displacement of joint C of the truss. Each A992 steel member has a cross-sectional area of 400 mm2arrow_forwardThe A992 steel bars are pin connected at C. If they each have a diameter of 2 in., determine the vertical displacement at E.arrow_forwardDetermine the horizontal displacement of joint B of the truss. Each A992 steel member has a cross-sectional area of 400 mm2.arrow_forward
- The rods each have the same 25-mm diameter and 600-mm length. If they are made of A992 steel, determine the forces developed in each rod when the temperature increases by 50 C.arrow_forwardDetermine the horizontal displacement of joint A. Each bar is made of A992 steel and has a cross-sectional area of 1.5 in2.arrow_forwardThe rod has a circular cross section. If it is made of an elastic perfectly plastic material, determine the shape factor for the rod.arrow_forward
- The timber column has a length of 18 ft and is fixed connected at its ends. Use the NFPA formulas to determine the largest axial force P that it can support.arrow_forwardDetermine the shape factor for the member having the tubular cross section.arrow_forwardThe rigid beam rests in the horizontal position on two 2014-T6 aluminum cylinders having the unloaded lengths shown. If each cylinder has a diameter of 30 mm, determine the placement x of the applied 80-kN load so that the beam remains horizontal. What is the new diameter of cylinder A after the load is applied? nal = 0.35.arrow_forward
