Question
An elastomeric bearing pad consisting of two
steel plates bonded to a chloroprene elastomer (an
artificial rubber) is subjected to a shear force V during
a static loading test (see figure). The pad has dimen-
sions a 5 125 mm and b 5 240 mm, and the elastomer
has a thickness t 5 50 mm. When the force V equals
12 kN, the top plate is found to have displaced later-
ally 8.0 mm with respect to the bottom plate.
What is the shear modulus of elasticity G of the
chloroprene?
