The upper deck of a football stadium is supported by braces, each of which transfers a load P=150 kips to the base of a column (see figure part a). A cap plate at the bottom of the brace distributes the load P to four flange plates (t=1 in.) through a pin (dp=2 in.) to two gusset plates (t = 1.5 in.) (see figure parts b and c). Determine the following quantities: (a) The average shear stress in the pin (b) The average bearing stress between the flange plates and the pin, and also between the gusset plates and the pin. Note: Disregard friction between the plates.

Axial Load

When a bar of the uniform cross-section is acted by a load, such that the load acts along the longitudinal axis of the bar, such kinds of loadings are known as axial loadings. In general terms, a load is an external force acting on a component. An axial load acts perpendicular to the geometric cross-section of the component. Based on the direction of the application of the load, an axial load can be tensile or compressive. The analysis of bodies under the action of axial loads is generally studied under the branch of mechanics, known as statics.
