The figure above shows a crane tower on site at the HWY 1 expansion and Stoney Trail
extension in NW Calgary. You are a design engineer working for the company supplying cranes
for the contractors and you have been asked to evaluate the tower design. The crane tower
supporting the pulley is designed so that the resultant force from the cable tension running over
the pulley is oriented along the tower axis. Note: The tension in the cable is the same on both
sides so ||Fill = ||F2l|| = T.
A rope is strung between two walls parallel to the floor. A 35kg mass is hung from the rope at its midpoint. This causes the rope to sag by 12°. Find the tension in the rope.
In the wood industries, inclined blocks of wood are sometimes used to determine the compression-shear strength of glued joints. Consider the pair of glued blocks A and B in Figure which are 38 mm deep in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the paper. Determine the shearing ultimate strength of the glue in MPa if a vertical force of 50 kN is required to cause rupture of the joint.
