1. The outer 3/8 plate has load P applied to it. The tensile yield strength of the plate is 18 ksi, maximum shear stress is 9 ksi, and the maximum bearing stress is 12 ksi. Determine the load P if a. Failure occurs because of bearing stress between the outer plate and the pins. b. Tensile failure occurs in the plate at location A in the outer plate. c. Tensile failure occurs in the plate at location B in the outer plate. d. The bolts shear. e. The plate tears.

3. A steel column, E = 200 GPa, has a compressive load applied to it. The force is applied at the two pins. The pins allow rotation around the z-axis and do not allow rotation around the y-axis. The length of the beam between the pins is 8 m. Flange 90 mm Determine the maximum allowable compressive force that can be applied. mm 10 Stem 90 mm y 10 mm
