Chapter 5, Problem 37P

An aluminum rod, made from alloy 6061-T6, is made in the form of a hollow square tube, 2.25 in outside with a wall thickness of 0.125 in. Its length is 16.0 in. It carries an axial compressive force of 12 600 lb. Compute the resulting design factor. Assume that the tube does not buckle.

A structural support for a machine will be subjected to a static tensile load of 16.0 kN. It is planned to fabricate the support from a square rod made from SAE 1020 hot-rolled steel. Specify suitable dimensions for the cross section of the rod.
A structural support for a machine is subjected to a static compression load of 20 kN. The support is manufactured from a circular rod made from SAE 1040 Hot Rolled steel. Specify suitable diameter for the cross section of the rod based on the basic size. Steel data are available in Table A-10 from the textbook.
Compute the design factor in the middle portion only of the rod AC if the steady vertical force on the boom is 2500 lb. The rod is rectangular, 1.50 in by 3.50 in, and is made from SAE 1144 cold-drawn steel. Include a mohr circle.
