PROBLEM SET (Types of Simple Stress) Solve the following problems: 1. Determine the smallest safe cross-sectional areas of members CD, GD, and GF for the truss shown. The working stresses are 140 MPa in tension and 100 MPa in compression. (The working stress in compression is smaller to reduce the danger of bucking). 2. The piece of wood, 100 mm by 100 mm in cross section, contains @ glued joint inclined at the angle of © to the vertical. The working stresses are 20 MPa for ‘wood in tension, 8 MPa for glue in tension, and 12 MPa for glue in shear. I= 50°, determine the largest allowable axial force P. 3, The 20 mm diameter bolt fastens two wooden planks together. The nut is tightened until the tensile stress in the bolt is 150 MPa, Find the smallest safe ameter oft washers it the woking Bearing sess fr wood 13 MPa 4, The uniform 150 kg bar AB carries a2 kN vertical force at A. The bar is ‘supported by a pin at B and 10 mm diameter cable CD. Find the stress in the cable.
