Figure 35.A schematically depicts the design of a go-cart frame with cross bars and seat support. The assembly is to be constructed from hot-rolled, low-carbon, box-channel material with miter, butt, and fillet welds at the 12 numbered joints. Because of the solidification shrinkage and subsequent thermal contraction of the joint material, the welds are best made when one or more of the sections are unrestrained. If the structure is too rigid at the time of welding, the associated dimensional changes are restricted, causing the generation of residual stresses that can lead to distortion, cracking, or tears.
- Consider the 12 welds in the proposed structure and recommend a welding sequence that would minimize the possibility of hot tears and cracks because of the welding of a restrained joint.
- Your company is developing a computer-assisted design program. Suggest one or more rules that could be programmed to aid in the selection of an acceptable weld sequence.

The hand squeezes the upper jaw-handle AD [2] and the lower handle BC [Orane 4] with forces F. (Member CD [Red 3] acts as if it is pinned at D, but, in a real vise-grips, its position is actually adjustable.) The clamping force, R, depends on the geometry and on the squeezing force F applied to the handles.

- 56 Clamps like the one shown are commonly used in woodworking applications. This clamp has the dimensions given in the table below the figure, and its jaws are mm thick (in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the picture). a.) The screws of the clamp are adjusted so that there is a uniform pressure of P = 150 kPa being applied to the workpieces by the jaws. Determine the force carried in each screw. Hint: the uniform pressure can be modeled in 2-D as a uniform distributed load with intensity w = Pt (units of N/m) acting over the length of contact between the jaw and the workpiece. b.) Determine the minimum vertical force (parallel to the jaws) required to pull either one of the workpieces out of the clamp jaws. Use a coefficient of static friction between all contacting surfaces of μs = 0.56 and the same clamping pressure given for part (a). 2013 Michael Swanbom A B C a Values for dimensions on the figure are given in the following table.
