A sign of weight W is supported at its base by four bolls anchored in a concrete footing. Wind pressure P acts normal to the surface of the sign; the resultant of the uniform wind pressure is force fat the center of pressure (C.P). The wind force is assumed to create equal shear forces F/4 in the y direction at each boll (see figure parts a and c). The overturning effect of the wind force also causes an uplift force R at bolts A and C and a downward force (— R) al bolts B and D (see figure part b). The resulting effects of the wind and the associated ultimate stresses for each stress condition are normal stress in each boll (h — 60 ksi); shear through the base plate (th = 17 ksi); horizontal shear and bearing on each bolt ( tfur = 25 ksi and cr^ = 75 ksi): and bearing on the bottom washer at B (or D) (abor = 50 ksi).
Rigid bar ACB is supported by an elastic circular strut DC having an outer diameter of 15 in. and inner diameter of 14.4 in. The strut is made of steel with a modulus elasticity of E = 29,000 ksi. Point load P = 5 kips is applied at B. Calculate the change in length of the circular strut DC. What is the vertical displacement of the rigid bar at point B?
A 10-ft rigid bar AB is supported with a vertical translational spring at A and a pin at B. The bar is subjected to a linearly varying distributed load with maximum intensity q0. Calculate the vertical deform at ion of the spring if the spring constant is 4 kips/in.
Slender column ABC is supported at A and C and is subjected to axial load P. Lateral support is provided at mid-height if but only in the plane of the figure; lateral support perpendicular to the plane of the figure is provided only at ends A and C. The column is a steel W shape with modulus of elasticity E = 200 GPa and proportional limit pl= 400 MPa. The total length of the column L = 9 m. If the al low-able load is 150 kN and the factor of safety is 2.5, determine the lightest W 200 section that can be used for the column. (See Table F-l(b), Appendix F).
A steel column ( E = 30 X 103 ksi) that is fixed at the base and free at the top is constructed of a W8 x 35 wide-flange member (sec figure). The column is 9.0 ft long. The force P acting at the top of the column has an eccentricity e = 1.25 in. If P = 40 kips, what is the maximum compressive stress in the column? If the yield stress is 36 ksi and the required factor of safety with respect to yielding is 2.1, what is the allowable load Pallow?
A copper bar AB with a length 25 in. and diameter 2 in. is placed in position at room temperature with a gap of 0.008 in. between end A and a rigid restraint (see figure). The bar is supported at end B by an elastic spring with a spring constant k= 1.2 × 106 lb/in. (a) Calculate the axial compressive stress crcin the bar if the temperature of the bar only rises 50 F.

A long, slender bar in the shape of a right circular cone with length L and base diameter d hangs vertically under the action of its own weight (see figure).

(Assume that the angle of taper of the cone is small.)
A column, pinned at top and bottom, is made up of two C 6 x 13 steel shapes (see figure) that act together. Find the buckling load (kips) if the gap is zero.

Note that distance d is measured between the centroids of the two C shapes.
An idealized column is composed of rigid bars ABC and CD joined by an elastic connection with rotational stiffness ßRIat C. There is a roller support at B and an elastic support at D with translationa1 spring stiffness ß and rotational stiffness ßR2. Find the critical buckling loads for each of the two buckling modes of the column. Assume that L = 3 m, ß = 9 kN/m, and ßR]= ßR1= ßL2. Sketch the buckled mode shapes.
A semicircular bar AB lying in a horizontal plane is supported at B (sec figure part a). The bar has a centerline radius R and weight q per unit of length (total weight of the bar equals TiqR). The cross section of the bar is circular with diameter d. (a) Obtain formulas for the maximum tensile stress v maximum compressive stress c, and maximum in-plane shear stress rmdX at the top of the bar at the support due to the weight of the bar. (b) Repeat part (a) if the bar is a quarter-circular segment (see figure part b) but has the same total weight as the semicircular bar.
AW310 × 74 wide-flange steel column with length L = 3.8 m is fixed at the base and free at the top (see figure).
