Chapter 6, Problem 6.3.4P
A simple beam of span length 3.2 m carries a uniform load of intensity 48 kN/m, The cross section of the beam is a hollow box with wood flanges and steel side plates, as shown in the figure. The wood flanges are 75 mm x 100 mm in cross section, and the steel plates are 300 mm deep.
What is the required thickness t of the steel plates if the allowable stresses are 120 M Pa for the steel and 6,5 M Pa for the wood? (Assume that the moduli of elasticity for the steel and wood are 210 GPa and 10 GPa, respectively, and disregard the weight of the beam.)

The allowable shear stress in the pin is 8,700 psi. and the allowable bearing stress between the pin and the tube is 13,000 psi.

The lateral earth pressure is pt=125 lb/ft2 at the top of the wall and p2= 425 lb/ft2 at the bottom. Assuming that the allowable stress in the wood is 1175 psi, calculate the maximum permissible spacing s of the piles. Find the required diameter of the wood piles so that piles and planks (f = 2.5 in.) reach the allowable stress at the same time. Hint: Observe that the spacing of the piles may be governed by the load-carrying capacity of either the planks or the piles.

To be on the safe side, assume that the pressure on the bottom plank is uniform and equal to the maximum pressure.arrow_forwardEach girder of the lift bridge (sec figure) is 180 ft long and simply supported at the ends.
