Prob.1: [4.99]

Two forces P can be applied separately or at the same time to a plate that
is welded to a solid circular bar of radius r. Determine the largest
compressive stress in the circular bar of radius, (a) when both are applied,
(b) when only one of the forces is applied.

Prob.2: [4.102]

Knowing that the magnitude of the horizontal force P is 8 kN, determine

the stress at (a) point A, (b) point B.

Prob.3: [4.103]

The vertical portion of the press shown consists of a rectangular tube of

wall thickness t = 10 mm. Knowing that the press has been tightened on a
wooden planks being glued together until P = 20 kN, determine the stress at
(a) point A, (b) point B

Prob.4: [4.113]

Knowing that the allowable shearing stress in section a-a of the hydraulic
press shown is 40 MPa in compression, determine the largest force P that
can be exerted by the press.

Prob.5: [4.114]

Knowing that the clamp shown has been tightened on wooden planks
being glued together until P = 400 N, determine in section a-a (a) the stress
at point A, (b) the stress at point D, (c) the location of the neutral axis.
