A 5m long steel struts connected by simply supported at the ends, and is made of a steel tube 80mm in diameter with a 40mm bore. The strut is loaded in compression by a force of 35kN, which is applied parallel to the longitudinal axis. There is an initial curvature to be observed for this strut (E = 210GN/m2, Yield stress = 300MN/m2)

A beam, 3 m long, is simply supported at its ends and is to carry a point load of 30 kN at mid-span. If the beam is rectangular in section, with its depth equal to twice its width, determine suitable dimensions to limit the maximum bending stress at mid-span to 80 MN/m2.
2. A helical compression spring is made from No. 8 steel wire and is to carry a 100 lb static load at a deflection of 1 inch. The outside coil diameter of the spring is 0.972 inches. The spring ends are squared. Assume the torsional yield strength of the wire is 80000 psi, and the shear modulus is 11.4 Mpsi, determine (a) The static load corresponding to the yield strength. (b) The deflection that would be caused by the load...
A 49 in long simply supported hollow circular steel tube has a 1.68 in OD and 0.392 in wall thickness. The cross-section is shown below. Use an allowable bending stress of 1.022 kpsi for steel and find the maximum safe uniformly distributed load that the beam can carry, if the loading is in the direction. Maximum safe uniformly distributed load- lbf/in.
A steel I-section beam, simply supported at its two ends, is
subjected to a uniformly distributed load q (vertically downward)
over its central segment having a length of 2 m as shown in the
figure. It also shows the type of restraints (F/P/L) against
lateral torsional buckling of the beam at its four sections. The
section at the left end of the beam has only the lateral rotational
restraint. The load is causing bending of the beam about x-x (major...

A W410 × 60 steel beam (see
Appendix B) is simply supported at its ends and carries a
concentrated load of P = 300 kN at the center of a 6.0-m
span. The W410 × 60 shape will be strengthened by adding two cover
plates of width b = 250 mm and thickness t = 16
mm to its flanges, as shown. Each cover plate is attached to its
flange by pairs of bolts spaced at intervals of s =...
