Question
A 2.8-in.-diameter solid aluminum post is subjected to a horizontal force of Px = 9.2 kips, a vertical force of Py = 23 kips, and a
concentrated torque of T = 4.2 kip-ft, acting in the directions shown. Assume L = 5 in. The yield strength of the aluminum is
Oy = 42 ksi, and a minimum factor of safety of FSmin = 1.67 is required by specification. Consider points Hand K, and determine
whether the aluminum post satisfies the specifications according to:
(a) the maximum-shear-stress theory.
(b) the maximum-distortion-energy
theory.
