What force is required to punch a ½ in. hole 3/8 in. thick plate if the ultimate shear
strength of the plate is 42,000 psi?
Given:
D = 0.5 in.
t = 3/8 in. = 0.375 in.
Su = 42,000 psi
Solution:
F = SA = Stress x Area
Where:
A = πdt = circumference x thickness
∴ F = Su (πdt)
Given:
t = 7/16 in.
F = 55 tons
Su = 50 ksi = 50,000 lb/in2
N= 2.0
Solution:
