Sample Problems On Simple Stress: By: Engr. John Paul O. Santos, SO2

This document provides sample problems and solutions for determining stresses in simple structural elements. It includes problems on determining maximum loads based on cross-sectional areas and working stresses of members. The problems cover stresses in wires, columns, struts, wood joints, shear stresses in punching holes, stresses in riveted joints, and stresses in pins and cables. The solutions demonstrate calculating governing stresses and selecting the load based on the member with the lowest allowable stress.

Solution:

Sample Problem
Determine the largest weight W that can be supported
by the two wires AB and AC: The working stresses are
100 MPa for AB and 150 MPa for AC. The cross
sectional areas of AB and AC are and , respectively.

Note: In selecting which weight governs, choose the


smallest between the two. Because if you chose the
largest weight the other member will collapse.
Solution:

Sample Problem
Find the maximum allowable value of P for the
column. The cross-sectional areas and working stresses
() are shown in the figure.

Note: In selecting which Force governs, choose the


smallest between the three. Because if you chose the
largest force the other member will collapse.
Solution:

Sample Problem
The figure shows the landing gear of a light airplane.
Determine the compressive stress in strut AB caused by
the landing reaction R=40 kN. Neglect the weights of
the members. The strut is a hollow tube, with 50-mm
outer diameter and 40-mm inner diameter.
Solution:

Sample Problem
The piece of wood, 100 mm by 100 mm in cross
section, contains a glued joint inclined at the angle to
the vertical. The working stresses are 20 MPa for wood
in tension, 8 MPa for glue in tension, and 12 MPa for
glue in shear. If , determine the largest allowable axial
force P.

Note: In selecting which Force governs, choose the


smallest between the three. Because if you chose the
largest force the other material will collapse.
Sample Problem
What force is required to punch a 20-mm-diameter hole
in a plate that is 25 mm thick? The shear strength of the
plate is 350 MN/m2.

Solution:
Solution:

Sample Problem
The lap joint is connected by three 20-mm-diameter
rivets. Assuming that the axial load P=50kN is
distributed equally among the three rivets, find (a) the
shear stress in a rivet; (b) the bearing stress between a
plate and a rivet; and (c) the maximum average tensile
stress in each plate.
Solution:

Sample Problem
Compute the maximum force P that can be applied to
the foot pedal. The 6-mm.-diameter pin at B is in single
shear, and its working shear stress is 28 MPa. The cable
attached at C has a diameter of 3 mm. and a working
normal stress of 140 MPa.
