TUTORIAL CHAPTER 1 STRESS and STRAIN

A square brass bar must not stretch more than 2.5 mm when it is subjected to
a tensile load. Knowing that modulus of elasticity, Ebrass is 105 GPa and that the
allowable tensile strength, all is 80 MPa, determine:
(i)

the maximum allowable length of the bar.

(ii)

the required dimensions of the cross section if the tensile load is 40


kN.

A structure AB is supported by a cable BC as shown in Figure 1. The 4 mm


diameter cable BC is made of a steel with Youngs modulus, E = 200 GPa.
Knowing that the maximum stress in the cable must not exceed 190 MPa and that
the elongation of the cable must not exceed 6 mm.
(i)

Determine the maximum load P that can be applied.

(ii)

If the load P is applied at the centre of structure AB, and the other
parameters are remained constant, determine what would be the
value of the new P.

Three bars each made of different materials are connected together and placed
between two walls as shown in Figure 2. The material properties and diameter of
each bar are given in Table 1.The bars are initially unstressed when the structure
is assembled at 20C. After the temperature has been increased to 130C,
determine
(i) The force exerted on the rigid supports, and
(ii) The corresponding change in length of the copper rod.

A pin connected structure is loaded and supported as shown in Figure 3. Member


CD is rigid and is horizontal before the load P is applied. Member A is an
aluminum alloy bar with a modulus of elasticity of 75 GPa and a cross sectional
area of 1000 mm2. Member B is a structural steel bar with a modulus elasticity of
200 GPa and a cross sectional area of 500 mm2. Determine:
(i) the normal stress in bars A and B
(ii) the vertical component of the displacement of point D

Three rods were assembled as shown in Figure 4. The material properties of each
material are indicated in Table 2. If it fits securely between its fixed supports
when the temperature is T1 = 20oC, determine
(i) The average normal stress in each material when the temperature
reaches T2 = 75oC.
(ii) The corresponding deflection at point A.

The assembly consists of two A-36 steel suspender rods AC and BD attached to
the 500 N uniform rigid beam AB as shown in Figure 5. Determine the position x

for the 1500N loading so that the beam remains in a horizontal position both
before and after the load is applied. Each rod has a diameter of 12 mm.

The bronze C86100 shaft is subjected to the axial loads as shown in Figure 6.
Determine the displacement of end A with respect to end D if the diameters of
each segments are d AB 15mm, d BC 40mm and dCD 10mm. EC 86100 105GPa .
