PROBLEM 16.54
Member AB consists of a single
C130 10.4
×
steel channel of length
2.5 m. Knowing that the pins at A and B pass through the centroid of the
cross section of the channel, determine the factor of safety for the load
shown with respect to buckling in the plane of the figure when
30

.
Use Euler’s formula with
200 GPa.E=
SOLUTION
PROBLEM 16.55
(a) Considering only buckling in the plane of the structure shown and
using Euler’s formula, determine the value of
θ
between 0° and 90° for
which the allowable magnitude of the load P is maximum. (b) Determine
the corresponding maximum value of P knowing that a factor of safety of
3.2 is required. Use

PROBLEM 16.56
The uniform aluminum bar AB has a
20 36×
-mm rectangular cross
section and is supported by pins and brackets as shown. Each end of the
bar may rotate freely about a horizontal axis through the pin, but rotation
about a vertical axis is prevented by the brackets. Using E
70=
GPa,
determine the allowable centric load P if a factor of safety of 2.5 is
required.
SOLUTION
PROBLEM 16.57
Determine (a) the critical load for the steel strut, (b) the
dimension d for which the aluminum strut will have the
same critical load. (c) Express the weight of the
aluminum strut as a percent of the weight of the steel
strut.
