The steel bracket A is used to support the hanger under a centrally applied force of 30 kN as shown. Given the thickness of 20 cm, determine the smallest dimension of h, b, and t in order for material's safety. The materials properties are listed below.
| sigma_(u) | tau_(u) | Factor of Safety | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bracket | 350MPa | 220MPa | 3 |
| Hanger | 400MPa | 180MPa |


The steel bracket A is used to support the hanger under a centrally applied force of 30 kN as shown
5. The figure shows a cast-iron bearing block that is to be bolted to a steel ceiling joist and is to support a gravity load of 18 kN. Bolts used are M24 ISO 8.8 with coarse threads. The joist flanges are 20 mm in thickness, and the dimension A is 20 mm. The modulus of elasticity of the block is 135 G Pa. Find the safe tensile shear load F that can be applied to this connection to provide a...
