Chapter 8.2, Problem 8.52P
The elevation of the end of the steel beam supported by a concrete floor is adjusted by means of the steel wedges E and F. The base plate CD has been welded to the lower flange of the beam, and the end reaction of the beam is known to be 18 kips. The coefficient of static friction is 0.30 between two steel surfaces and 0.60 between steel and concrete. If horizontal motion of the beam is prevented by the force Q, determine (a) the force P required to raise the beam, (b) the corresponding force Q.

A safety device used by workers climbing ladders fixed to high structures consists of a rail attached to the ladder and a sleeve that can slide on the flange of the rail. A chain connects the worker’s belt to the end of an eccentric cam that can be rotated about an axle attached to the sleeve at C. Determine the smallest allowable common value of the coefficient of static friction between the flange of the rail, the pins at A and B , and the eccentric cam if the sleeve is not to slide down when the chain is pulled vertically downward.
