1.Question 1

For the truss shown below, member BC is a circular solid bar with a 25 mm diameter.

Find:

(a) the normal and shear stress in member BC on a non-transverse plane 35° from the vertical as shown

(b) the maximum normal stress and maximum shear stress in member BC
On non-transverse cut: σ=55.0 MPa(T)    τ=38.5 MPa    \sigma =55.0\,MPa\left( T \right)\,\,\,\,\tau
=38.5\,MPa\,\,\,\,σ=55.0MPa(T)τ=38.5MPa

Max Values: σMAX=82.0 MPa(T)    τMAX=41.0 MPa    {{\sigma }_{MAX}}=82.0\,MPa\left( T \right)\,\,\,\,{{\tau }

_{MAX}}=41.0\,MPa\,\,\,\,σMAX=82.0MPa(T)τMAX=41.0MPa

On non-transverse cut: σ=75.0MPaTτ=50.0MPa

Max Values: σMAX=125MPaTτMAX=62.5MPa

On non-transverse cut: σ=67.3MPaTτ=47.1MPa

Max Values: σMAX=100MPaTτMAX=50.1MPa

2.Question 2

For the engineering structure below you may assume the weight of the members to be negligible when compared to the loads they are
supporting. All pin connections may be considered frictionless. A portion of member JH is a hollow steel tube with an inner radius of
10mm and an outer radius of 13 mm. The normal stress for a transverse cut through this member is 200 MPa in compression. Find the
axial force in member JH.
The axial force in member JH is 1.88 kN in compression.

The axial force in member JH is 10.9 kN in compression.

The axial force in member JH is 43.4 kN in compression.

3.Question 3

For the engineering structure below you may assume the weight of the members to be negligible when compared to the loads they are
supporting. All pin connections may be considered frictionless.

Bar DE is aluminum and has a cross sectional area of 5000 mm2m{{m}^{^{2}}}mm2 and has a normal stress of 200 MPa in
compression.

Bar BC is steel and has a cross sectional area of 1300 mm2m{{m}^{^{2}}}mm2 and has a normal stress of 150 MPa in tension.

Find the force P

P is 352 kN to the right
P is 556 kN to the right

P is 878 kN to the right
