A short column is loaded in compression. Segment (1) has a solid cross section with a diameter of 1.30 in. Segment (2) is hollow with an outside diameter of 1.66 in. and a wall thickness of 0.18 in. If segment (2) has a normal stress of 14 ksi, determine the normal stress in segment (1).

A steel rod with a circular cross section is used as a weight hanger. The straight part of the rod is 135-mm long and has a diameter of 4.4 mm. Determine the longitudinal strain in this portion of the rod when it supports a tensile load of 11.0 N.

The rigid beam BC is supported by rods (1) and (2). For a uniformly distributed load of w = 3.5 kN/m, determine the force in rod (1). Assume a = 2.90 m and L = 4.60 m.

Three plates are connected with two bolts and transmit load P = 7.9 kN. Each plate is 5.8 mm thick, and each bolt has a diameter of 9.7 mm. Determine the average shear stress in the bolts.

A square that was initially a x a in size is deformed into the following shape. If a = 27 mm, b = 10 mm, and c = 25 mm, determine the magnitude of the shear strain at C.

Axial loads are applied with rigid bearing plates to the solid cylindrical rods shown. If F1 = 35 kips, F2 = 18 kips, F3 = 21 kips, and F4 = 38 kips, determine the absolute value of the axial load in rod (2).

A short column is loaded in compression. Segment (1) has a solid cross section with a diameter of 1.20 in. Segment (2) is hollow with an outside diameter of 1.60 in. and a wall thickness of 0.20 in. If segment (2) has a normal stress of 12 ksi, determine the normal stress in segment (1).

Rigid pipe (2) is supported by a pin connection at C and tie rod (1). The structure supports a load P = 20 kN at pin B. Assume x1 = 2.8 m, x2 = 1.1 m, and y1 = 3.9 m. Determine the force in tie rod (1).

A load of 19 kN is applied through a pin connection and a square bearing plate to the end of a beam that has a rectangular cross section. The base of the beam’s cross section is 76 mm and the height is 170 mm. The size of the bearing plate is 90 mm. Determine the bearing stress between the plate and the beam.
