Concept explainers
Brackets, such as the one shown, are used in mooring small watercraft. Failure of such brackets is usually caused by bearing pressure of the mooring clip against the side of the hole. Our purpose here is to get an idea of the static and dynamic margins of safety involved. We use a bracket 1/4 in thick made of hot-rolled 1018 steel, welded with an E6010 electrode. We then
assume wave action on the boat will create force F no greater than 1200 lbf.
(a) Determine the moment M of the force F about the centroid of the weld G. This moment produces a shear stress on the throat resisting bending action with a “tension” at A and “compression” at C.
(b) Find the force component Fy that produces a shear stress at the throat resisting a “tension” throughout the weld.
(c) Find the force component Fx that produces an in-line shear throughout the weld.
(d) Using Table 9–2, determine A, Iu, and I for the bracket.
(e) Find the shear stress τ1 at A due to Fy and M, the shear stress τ2 due to Fx, and combine to find τ.
(f) Find the factor of safety guarding against shear yielding in the weldment. Since the weld material is comprised of a mix of the electrode material and the base material, take the conservative approach of utilizing the strength of the weaker material.
(g) Find the factor of safety guarding against a static failure in the parent metal at the weld.
(h) Assuming the force F alternates between zero and 1200 lbf, find the factor of safety guarding against a fatigue failure in the weld metal using a Gerber failure criterion.

- A sign for an automobile service station is supported by two aluminum poles of hollow circular cross section, as shown in the figure. The poles are being designed to resist a wind pressure of 75 lb/ft" against the full area of the sign. The dimensions of the poles and sign are hx= 20 ft, /r =5 ft, and h = 10 ft. To prevent buckling of the walls of the poles, the thickness e is specified as one-tenth the outside diameter d. (a) Determine the minimum required diameter of the poles based upon an allowable bending stress of 7500 psi in the aluminum. (b) Determine the minimum required diameter based upon an allowable shear stress of 300 psi.arrow_forwardA rigid bar of weight W = 750 lb hangs from three equally spaced wires: two of steel and one of aluminum (see figure). The diameter of the wires is 1/8 in. Before they were loaded, all three wires had the same length. What temperature increase T in all three wires will result in the entire load being carried by the steel wires? (Assume Es= 30 × 106 psi, as= 6.5 × 10-6 /'F, and aa= 12 × 10-6F.)arrow_forwardAn aluminum bar has length L = 6 ft and diameter d = 1.375 in. The stress-strain curse for the aluminum is shown in Fig. 1.34. The initial straight, line part of the curve has a slope (modulus of elasticity) of 10.6 × 106 psi. The bar is loaded by tensile forces P = 44.6 k and then unloaded. (a) That is the permanent set of the bar?

Elsewhere, the second and third bars have a diameter Id. All three bars are subjected to the same axial load P.
