A wood specimen was prepared with actual dimensions of 25 mm * 25 mm *150 mm and grain parallel to its length. Displacement was measured over a100 mm gauge length. The specimen was subjected to compression parallel to the grain to failure. The load–deformation results are as shown in Table P10.24. a. Using a computer spreadsheet program, plot the stress–strain relationship.b. Calculate the modulus of elasticity.c. What is the failure stress?
A 32-mm rebar with a gauge length of 200 mm was subjected to tension to fracture according to ASTM E-8 method. The load and deformation data were as shown in Table P3.33. Using a spreadsheet program obtain the following: a. A plot of the stress-strain relationship. Label the axes and show units. b. A plot of the linear portion of the stress-strain relationship. Determine modulus of elasticity using the best-fit approach. c. Proportional limit. d. Yield stress. e. Ultimate strength. f. If the rebar is loaded to 390 kN only and then unloaded, what is the permanent change in length?

A wood beam reinforced by an aluminum channel section is shown in the figure. 150 mm 232 mm 38 mm 6.5 mm 163 mm- The beam has a cross section of dimensions 150 mm x 232 mm, and the channel has a uniform thickness of 6.5 mm. If the allowable stresses in the wood and aluminum are 8 MPa and 46 MPa, respectively, and if their moduli of elasticity are in the ratio 1 to 6, what is the maximum allowable bending moment for the beam? Enter the magnitude in kN • m. (Assume that the component parts of the beam are securely bonded by adhesives or connected by fasteners. Also, be sure to use the transformed-section method in the solution.) kN m
