Chapter 8 Problem 8-18

Question

Determine the shortest distance d to the edge of the plate at which the force P can be applied so that it produces no compressive stresses in the plate at section a–a. The plate has a thickness of 10 mm and P acts along the centerline of this thickness.

Solution

Step 1 of 4)

The first step in solving 8 problem number 18 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Determine the shortest distance d to the edge of the plate at which the force P can be applied so that it produces no compressive stresses in the plate at section a–a. The plate has a thickness of 10 mm and P acts along the centerline of this thickness.
From the textbook chapter Combined Loadings you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
