QUESTION 3) A horizontal beam AD is supported by an inclined strut CB and carries a load of 15 kN at joint D in the figure. The strut, which consist of two bars each of thickness 40 mm, is connected to the beam by a rivet passing through the three bars meeting at joint C. The allowable shear stress and bearing stress are t-60 MPa and o=120 MPa, respectively. a) Determine the required diameter of the rivet at the hinge C that carry safely by the given system. b) If the diameter rivet used on the support A is 20 mm check whether this rivet diameter is sufficient for the given system. 0.8m Im 0.6m 15 kN В Beam AD 20mm Strut CB 40mm 100mm 40mm 50mm 100mm Detail of joint C Detail of joint A
