A load of 12 kN is applied through a pin connection and a square bearing plate to the end of a beam that has a rectangular cross section. The base of the beam’s cross section is 68 mm and the height is 200 mm. The size of the bearing plate is 88 mm. Determine the bearing stress between the plate and the beam.

A square that was initially a x a in size is deformed into the following shape. If a = 21 mm, b = 6.4 mm, and c = 20 mm, determine the magnitude of the shear strain at B. (Use the small-angle approximation sin γ ≈ tan γ ≈ γ.)
