2. A circular shaft has a diameter of 60mm. Calculate the maximum torque that
can be transmitted by the shaft if the maximum allowable shear stress in the
shaft is 180MN/m2
3. Determine the shear stress in each rivet in a lap joint with single shear made
with six rivets each of 5mm in diameter, when the joint is subjected to a shear
force of 2kN

The maximum and minimum perpendicular strains in a stressed component were found to be
8.5x10-4 and 1.5x10-4. If E = 210 GN/m2 and = 0.3, calculate the maximum and minimum
stresses.
