Question

A steel plate of dimensions 2.5 X1.5 X 0.08 m
and weighing 23.1 kN is hoisted by steel cables with
lengths L₁ = 3.2 m and L₂ = 3.9 m that are each
attached to the plate by a clevis and pin (see figure).
The pins through the clevises are 18 mm in diameter
and are located 2.0 m apart. The orientation angles
are measured to be θ = 94.4° and α = 54.9°.
For these conditions, first determine the cable
forces T₁ and T₂, then find the average shear stress
τ_aver in both pin 1 and pin 2, and then the average
bearing stress σ_b between the steel plate and each pin.
Ignore the weight of the cables.
