Factor of Safety Activity The lap joint is connected by three 20-mm diameter rivets. Assuming that the applied allowable load, P=50kN is distributed equally among the three rivets and a factor of safety of 1.5, find: (a) the failure shear stress in a rivet, and (b) failure bearing stress between the plate and rivet 25 mm 25 mm
Draw the shear and moment diagrams of the beam CDE showing all calculations.  Assume the support at A is a roller and B is a pin.  There are fixed connected joints at D and E.  Assume P equals 9.6 and w equals 0.36
Find the length of the diagonal on the x-z plane (square root of square of sides). Find angle between the vector F and its projection on x-z (the diagonal defined above). Find Horizontal Projection of F on x-z plane, Fh, and vertical component, FY. Find projections of Fh, to define in-plane components Fx and Fz. Show that results match those of Problem 2(a) above.
