1. Design and draw a screw jack for lifting a safe load of 150 kN through a maximum
lift of 350 mm. The elastic strength of the material of the screw may be taken as
240 MPa is compression and 160 MPa in shear. The nut is to be made of phosphor
bronze for which the elastic strength in tension, compression and shear are
respectively 130, 115 and 110 N/mm 2. Bearing pressure between the threads of the
screw and the nut may be taken as 18 N/mm 2. Safe crushing stress for the material
of the body is 100 N/mm2. Coefficient of friction for the screw as well as collar
may be taken as 0.15.
2. Design a triple riveted longitudinal double strap butt joint with unequal straps for a
boiler. The inside diameter of the drum is 1.3 meters. The joint is to be designed
for a steam pressure of 2.4 N/mm 2. the working stresses to be used are 
 t=77N/mm2, =62 N/mm2 ; c=120 N/mm2. Assume the efficiency of the joint as
81 %.
3. A bracket plate carrying a load of 120KN is to be welded to a column as shown in
fig. Find the suitable size of the weld , if the allowable shear stress in the weld is
110MPa

4. Design a socket and spigot cotter joint to connect two mild steel rods for a pull of
30 kN. The maximum permissible stresses are 55N/mm 2 in tension, 40N/mm2 in
shear and 70 N/mm2 in crushing. Draw a neat sketch of the joint.

5. A wall bracket is attached to the wall by means of four bolts, two at A and two at B
as shown in figure. Assuming that the bracket is held against the wall and prevented
from tipping about the point C by all four bolts and using an allowable tensile stress in
the bolts as 35N/mm2. Determine the size of the bolts on the basis of Maximum
principal stress theory.
