A tie-down on the deck of a sailboat consists of a bent bar bolted at both ends, as shown in the figure. The diameter dg of the bar is 1/4 in., the diameter dw of the washers is 7/8 in., and the thickness t of the fiberglass deck is 3/8 in. If the allowable shear stress in the fiberglass is 300 psi, and the allowable bearing pressure between the washer and the fiberglass is 550 psi, what is the allowable load Patlow on the tie-down? dg- - dw Mp-

Material Properties

Construction in civil engineering demands high strength, durability, and longevity. These targets can be achieved by better design and analysis, along with the correct choice of materials. Different materials have different properties and hence, they respond and performs differently under the various condition of external loadings. It is therefore a critical task of an engineer to select the right material based on the property that the material is supposed to function in real-time. When speaking about the property, there are different categories of material properties like chemical property, physical property, mechanical property, electrical property, magnetic property, thermal property, etc. These material properties form the basis of material selection in various applications.
