Textbook Question
Chapter 14, Problem 10ICA
You are assigned to inspect metal-composite beam trusses for a new bridge being built over a nearby lake. The manufacturer has run a prototype set of 500 beams and conducted strength tests, which you consider to be the baseline case, shown by the solid line in all graphs. Examine the graphs, and explain the changes to the baseline curve observed in the dashed line by choosing a cause from the following list. The strength of the beam is shown on the abscissa.
a. The manufacturer tested 1000 beams instead of 500 beams
b. A reinforcing coating was used on a sample of 500 beams.
c. The manufacturer upgraded processing equipment to lower the variability of the metal-composite strength.

- (b) A steel 'hot rolled structural hollow section' column of length 5.75 m, has the cross-section shown in Figure Q.5(b) and supports a load of 750 kN. During service, it is subjected to axial compression loading where one end of the column is effectively restrained in position and direction (fixed) and the other is effectively held in position but not in direction (pinned). i) Given that the steel has a design strength of 275 MN/m², determine the load factor for the structural member based upon the BS5950 design approach using Datasheet Q.5(b).
