Section properties for the clamp are as follows:

h = 20.000 in.
b = 23.000 in.
c = 20.000 in. / 2
= 10.000 in.
A = bh
= 460.000 in.2
I = bh3/ 12
= 15,333.333 in.4
S = 15,333.333 in.4 / 10.000 in.
= 1,533.333 in.3

The internal force Ny = 3.0 lb creates a uniformly distributed tension normal stress.

a = Ny / Area
= 3.0 lb / 460.000 in.2
= 0.006522 psi

The internal moment Mz = 36.0 lb-in. creates linearly distributed tension and compression normal stresses in the clamp.
Stresses on the inner side of the clamp are tension while compression stresses occur on the outer side. The maximum
magnitude of the bending stress is:

b = |Mz| / S
= 36.0 lb-in. / 1,533.333 in.3
= 0.02348 psi

At point A on the inner surface of the clamp, the axial and bending normal stresses (both tension) can be superimposed for
a combined normal stress of:
A = Ny / Area + |Mz| / S
= 0.006522 psi + 0.02348 psi
= 0.03000 psi

At point B on the outer surface of the clamp, the tension axial stress is counteracted by the compression bending stress so
that the combined normal stress is:
B = Ny / Area - |Mz| / S
= 0.006522 psi - 0.02348 psi
= -0.01696 psi

Since there are no shear stresses, the 0.03000 psi and -0.01696 psi normal stresses are also the principal stresses on the
inner and outer surfaces of the clamp, respectively. In each case, the maximum shear stress is equal to half of the
principal stress.

Section properties for the clamp are as follows:

h = 12.000 in.
b = 28.000 in.
c = 12.000 in. / 2

I = bh3/ 12

S = 4,032.000 in.4 / 6.000 in.
= 672.000 in.3

The internal force Ny = 7.0 lb creates a uniformly distributed tension normal stress.

a = Ny / Area
= 7.0 lb / 336.000 in.2
= 0.02083 psi

The internal moment Mz = 84.0 lb-in. creates linearly distributed tension and compression normal stresses in the clamp.
Stresses on the inner side of the clamp are tension while compression stresses occur on the outer side. The maximum
magnitude of the bending stress is:

b = |Mz| / S
= 84.0 lb-in. / 672.000 in.3
= 0.1250 psi

At point A on the inner surface of the clamp, the axial and bending normal stresses (both tension) can be superimposed for
a combined normal stress of:
A = Ny / Area + |Mz| / S
= 0.02083 psi + 0.1250 psi
= 0.1458 psi

At point B on the outer surface of the clamp, the tension axial stress is counteracted by the compression bending stress so
that the combined normal stress is:
B = Ny / Area - |Mz| / S
= 0.02083 psi - 0.1250 psi
= -0.1042 psi

Since there are no shear stresses, the 0.1458 psi and -0.1042 psi normal stresses are also the principal stresses on the
inner and outer surfaces of the clamp, respectively. In each case, the maximum shear stress is equal to half of the
principal stress.

Section properties for the clamp are as follows:

The internal force Ny = 40.0 lb creates a uniformly distributed tension normal stress.

a = Ny / Area

The internal moment Mz = 480.0 lb-in. creates linearly distributed tension and compression normal stresses in the clamp.
Stresses on the inner side of the clamp are tension while compression stresses occur on the outer side. The maximum
magnitude of the bending stress is:

b = |Mz| / S
= 480.0 lb-in. / 792.000 in.3

At point A on the inner surface of the clamp, the axial and bending normal stresses (both tension) can be superimposed for
a combined normal stress of:
A = Ny / Area + |Mz| / S
= 0.1010 psi + 0.6061 psi
= 0.7071 psi

At point B on the outer surface of the clamp, the tension axial stress is counteracted by the compression bending stress so
that the combined normal stress is:
B = Ny / Area - |Mz| / S
= 0.1010 psi - 0.6061 psi
= -0.5051 psi

Since there are no shear stresses, the 0.7071 psi and -0.5051 psi normal stresses are also the principal stresses on the
inner and outer surfaces of the clamp, respectively. In each case, the maximum shear stress is equal to half of the
principal stress.

The internal force Ny = 68.0 lb creates a uniformly distributed tension normal stress.

a = Ny / Area

The internal moment Mz = 816.0 lb-in. creates linearly distributed tension and compression normal stresses in the clamp.
Stresses on the inner side of the clamp are tension while compression stresses occur on the outer side. The maximum
magnitude of the bending stress is:

b = |Mz| / S
= 816.0 lb-in. / 3,249.000 in.3

At point A on the inner surface of the clamp, the axial and bending normal stresses (both tension) can be superimposed for
a combined normal stress of:
A = Ny / Area + |Mz| / S
= 0.06628 psi + 0.2512 psi
= 0.3174 psi

At point B on the outer surface of the clamp, the tension axial stress is counteracted by the compression bending stress so
that the combined normal stress is:
B = Ny / Area - |Mz| / S
= 0.06628 psi - 0.2512 psi
= -0.1849 psi

Since there are no shear stresses, the 0.3174 psi and -0.1849 psi normal stresses are also the principal stresses on the
inner and outer surfaces of the clamp, respectively. In each case, the maximum shear stress is equal to half of the
principal stress.

magnitude of the bending stress is:

b = |Mz| / S

At point A on the inner surface of the clamp, the axial and bending normal stresses (both tension) can be superimposed for
a combined normal stress of:
A = Ny / Area + |Mz| / S
= 0.1296 psi + 0.3457 psi
= 0.4753 psi

At point B on the outer surface of the clamp, the tension axial stress is counteracted by the compression bending stress so
that the combined normal stress is:
B = Ny / Area - |Mz| / S
= 0.1296 psi - 0.3457 psi

Since there are no shear stresses, the 0.4753 psi and -0.2160 psi normal stresses are also the principal stresses on the
