If the length of a timber [E = 1,300 ksi] column cannot change by more than 0.045 in., determine the maximum load P that can be applied to the column. Let b = 4.50 in., d = 9.50 in., and L = 118 in.

An upward load is applied to a circular rod that has a diameter of 10.85 mm. The rod is connected to the ground using a pin that has a diameter of 9.62 mm. If the normal stress in the rod is limited to 245 MPa and the average shear stress in the pin is limited to 150 MPa, determine the maximum load that can be applied to this connection.

A 3D printer is used to create a shock absorbed composed of two polymers. Polymer (1) [E = 140 ksi] has a cross-sectional area of 1.6 in.2. Polymer (2) [E = 160 ksi] has a cross-sectional area of 1.6 in.2. After the shock absorber is loaded between steel plates by load P = 575 lb, determine the load carried by polymer (1).

A 3D printer is used to create a shock absorbed composed of two polymers. Polymer (1) [E = 300 ksi] has a cross-sectional area of 1.1 in.2. Polymer (2) [E = 180 ksi] has a cross-sectional area of 1.1 in.2. After the shock absorber is loaded between steel plates by load P = 450 lb, determine the load carried by polymer (2).

If the length of a timber [E = 1,600 ksi] column cannot change by more than 0.040 in., determine the maximum load P that can be applied to the column. Let b = 4.25 in., d = 9.75 in., and L = 104 in.

An upward load is applied to a square rod that has a width of 10.07 mm. The rod is connected to the ground using a pin that has a diameter of 9.56 mm. If the normal stress in the rod is limited to 190 MPa and the average shear stress in the pin is limited to 105 MPa, determine the maximum load that can be applied to this connection.

A load of P = 14,400 lb is applied to the connection. If the average shear stress in the bolts is limited to 31 ksi and the required factor of safety is 2.0, determine the minimum allowable bolt diameter.
