P1.10 A simple pin-connected truss is loaded
and supported as shown in Figure P1.10. Allmembers of the truss are aluminum pipes that
have an outside diameter of 60 mm and a wall
thickness of 4 mm. Determine the normal
stress in each truss member.

Overall equilibrium:Begin the solution by determining the
external reaction forces acting on the truss at
supports A and B. Write equilibrium
equations that include all external forces.
Note that only the external forces (i.e., loadsand reaction forces) are considered at this
time. The internal forces acting in the trussmembers will be considered after the external
reactions have been computed. The free-

P1.16 Two 6 in. wide wooden boards are
to be joined by splice plates that will befully glued on the contact surfaces. The
glue to be used can safely provide a shear
strength of 120 psi. Determine the smallest
allowable length L that can be used for thesplice plates for an applied load of P =
10,000 lb. Note that a gap of 0.5 in. is
required between boards (1) and (2). FIGURE P1.16
Solution
Consider a FBD of board (2). The glue on the splice plates provides resistance to the 10,000 lb appliedload on both the top and bottom surfaces of board (2). Denoting the shear resistance on a glue surface as
V , equilibrium in the horizontal direction requires

In other words, each glue surface must be large enough so that 5,000 lb of shear resistance can be provided to board (2). Since the glue has a shear strength of 120 psi, the area of each glue surface on
board (2) must be at least

The boards are 6-in. wide; therefore, glue must be spread along board (2) for a length of at least2

Although we’ve discussed only board (2), the same rationale applies to board (1). For both boards (1)
and (2), the glue must be applied along a length of at least 6.9444 in. on both the top and bottom of the
boards in order to resist the 10,000 lb applied load.
The glue applied to boards (1) and (2) must be matched by glue applied to the splice plates. Therefore,
the splice plates must be at least 6.9444 in. + 6.9444 in. = 13.8889 in. long. However, we are told that a0.5-in. gap is required between boards (1) and (2); therefore, the splice plates must be 0.5-in. longer.
Altogether, the length of the splice plates must be at least

P1.17, determine the maximum applied load P thatcan be supported by the 10-mm-diameter pin if the

Solution
Consider a FBD of the bar that is connected by the clevis,including a portion of the pin. If the shear force acting on each
exposed surface of the pin is denoted by V , then the shear force
on each pin surface is related to the load P by:

P1.39 Specifications for the 50 mm × 50 mm square bar
shown in Figure P1.38/39 require that the normal and shearstresses on plane AB not exceed 120 MPa and 90 MPa,
respectively. Determine the maximum load P that can be
applied without exceeding the specifications.

The cross-sectional area of the square bar is A = (50 mm)2 = 2,500 mm

The normal stress on plane AB is limited to 120 MPa; therefore, the maximum load P that can besupported by the square bar is found from Eq. (a):
