Chapter 8, Problem 8-71(choose chapter or problem)
QUESTION:
If couple forces of F = 10 lb are applied perpendicular to the lever of the clamp at A and B, determine the clamping force on the boards. The single square-threaded screw of the clamp has a mean diameter of 1 in. and a lead of 0.25 in. The coefficient of static friction is \(\mu_{\mathrm{s}}\) = 0.3.
