This document contains instructions for 4 stress transformation exercises involving determining principal stresses, shear stresses, normal stresses, and the maximum angle that results in a shear stress below a threshold. The exercises involve states of stress shown for an unspecified material, a wooden member at an angle to vertical forces, welded steel plates under a centered load, and a general plane stress problem.

Stress under general loading Stress transformation (Ex1)
Determine (a) the principal planes, (b) the principal
stresses, (c) the maximum shearing stress and the corresponding normal stress for the state of stress shown.
Stress under general loading Stress transformation (Ex2)
The grain of a wooden member forms an angle of
15 with the vertical direction. For the state of stress shown, determine a) the in-plane shearing stress parallel to the grain, b) the normal stress perpendicular to the grain.
Stress under general loading Stress transformation (Ex3)
Two steel plates of uniform cross-section
10 mm 80 mm are welded together as shown. Knowing that centric 100 kN forces are applied to the welded plates and that 25, determine a) the in-plane shearing stress parallel to the weld, b) the normal stress perpendicular to the weld.
Stress under general loading Stress transformation (Ex4)
For the state of plane stress shown, determine the
largest value of for which the maximum inplane shearing stress is equal to or less than 75 MPa.
