Chapter 1: Problem 1 Mechanics of Materials 9The pin support A and roller support B of the bridge truss are supported on the concrete abutments. If the square bearing plates at C and D are \(21 \ \text { in. } \times 21 \ \text { in. }\)., and the bearing failure stress for concrete is \(\left(\sigma_{\text {fail }}\right)_{b}=4 \ \mathrm{ksi}\), determine the factor of safety against bearing failure for the concrete under each plate.

Chapter 1: Problem 1 Mechanics of Materials 9The beam AB is pin supported at A and supported by a cable BC. A separate cable CG is used to hold up the frame. If AB weighs 120 lb/ft and the column FC has a weight of 180 lb/ft, determine the resultant internal loadings acting on cross sections located at points D and E. Neglect the thickness of both the beam and column in the calculation.
