A stepped shaft ABC consist of two solid circular segments is subjected to

torques T1 = 2300 N.m and T2 = 900 N.m acting opposite directions, as shown
in Figure 1. The larger segment of the shaft has a diameter of d1 = 58 mm and
length, L1 = 760 mm; the smaller segment has a diameter of d2 = 45 mm and
length, L2 = 510 mm. The material is made up of steel with shear modulus G =
1 1 2
76 GPa,
(a) Calculate the maximum shear stress in the shaft and the angle of twist (in
degrees) at end C.
(b) What is the required diameter of segment BC and resulting twist at end C?
if the maximum shear stress in BC is same as AB.
Determine the reactions from the equations of equilibrium for the beams shown

in Figure 2.
Write down the formulas to calculate the normal stresses and shear stresses on
3 the top and bottom of the rectangular beams? 3 2

The hoisting arrangement for lifting a large pipe is shown in Figure 4. The
spreader is made up of steel tubular section with outer diameter 70 mm and
inner diameter 57 mm. The length of spreader is 2.6 m and its modulus of
4 4 2
elasticity is 200 GPa. Using the factor of safety of 2.25 with respect to Euler
buckling of the spreader, what is the maximum weight of pipe that can be
lifted? Assume pinned conditions at the ends of the spreader.
