Problem 1
The floor crane is used to lift a 600-kg concrete pipe. Determine the resultant internal
loadings acting on the cross section at H.

Problem 2
The two members used in the construction of an aircraft fuselage are joined together
using a 30° fish-mouth weld. Determine the average normal and average shear stress on
the plane of each weld. Assume each inclined plane supports a horizontal force of 2 kN.

Problem 3
If the allowable tensile stress for wires AB and AC is 𝜎allow = 180 MPa, and wire AB has a
diameter of 5 mm and AC has a diameter of 6 mm, determine the greatest force P that can
be applied to the chain.
