Question

The square steel plate has a thickness of 0.8 in. and is subjected to the edge loading shown.

A) Determine the maximum principal stress developed in the steel.

B) Determine the minimum principal stress developed in the steel.

The image depicts a cube with dimensions and forces acting on it. The cube is shown with sides measuring 4 inches in length. Two sets of arrows indicate forces acting on the cube:

1. **Top Surface:** There is a downward force of 16 pounds per inch (lb/in) distributed across the top surface.
2. **Side Surface:** The same 16 lb/in force is applied horizontally on one of the side surfaces.

The cube appears regular and symmetrical, with equal dimensions on all sides, measuring 4 inches by 4 inches in both height and width. This diagram might be used to explain concepts related to pressure distribution, force, and stress in physics or engineering.
