QUESTION:

Link AB, of width \(b=2 \text { in. }\) and thickness \(t=\frac{1}{4} \mathrm{in}\)., is used to support the end of a horizontal beam. Knowing that the average normal stress in the link is -20 ksi and that the average shearing stress in each of the two pins is 12 ksi determine (a) the diameter d of the pins, (b) the average bearing stress in the link.

QUESTION:

Link AB, of width \(b=2 \text { in. }\) and thickness \(t=\frac{1}{4} \mathrm{in}\)., is used to support the end of a horizontal beam.

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 6

Following data are given in the problem.

Width of the link
Thickness of the link

Normal stress

Shearing stress

First we will calculate the force P in the link AB from normal stress. Then, from shearing stress, we will determine the required diameter of the pin for the link.
