PROBLEM 8.57
Member ABC, which is supported by a pin and bracket at C and a cable
BD, was designed to support the 16-kN load P as shown. Knowing that
the ultimate load for cable BD is 100 kN, determine the factor of safety
with respect to cable failure.
SOLUTION
Use member ABC as a free body, and note that member BD is a two-force member.

PROBLEM 8.60
In the steel structure shown, a 6-mm-
diameter pin is used at C and 10-mm-
diameter pins are used at B and D. The
ultimate shearing stress is 150 MPa at all
connections, and the ultimate normal
stress is 400 MPa in link BD. Knowing
that a factor of safety of 3.0 is desired,
determine the largest load P that can be
applied at A. Note that link BD is not
reinforced around the pin holes.
