CHAPTER OBJECTIVES

In this chapter we will review some of the important principles ofstatics and show how they are used to determine the internal resultantloadings in a body. Afterwards the concepts of normal and shearstress will be introduced, and specific applications of the analysis anddesign of members subjected to an axial load or direct shear will bediscussed.

1.1 Introduction

Mechanics of materials is a branch of mechanics that studies the internaleffects of stress and strain in a solid body that is subjected to an externalloading. Stress is associated with the strength of the material from whichthe body is made, while strain is a measure of the deformation of thebody. In addition to this, mechanics of materials includes the study ofthe body’s stability when a body such as a column is subjected tocompressive loading. A thorough understanding of the fundamentals ofthis subject is of vital importance because many of the formulas and rulesof design cited in engineering codes are based upon the principles of thissubject.

Historical Development. The origin of mechanics of materialsdates back to the beginning of the seventeenth century, when Galileoperformed experiments to study the effects of loads on rods and beamsmade of various materials. However, at the beginning of the eighteenthcentury, experimental methods for testing materials were vastlyimproved, and at that time many experimental and theoretical studiesin this subject were undertaken primarily in France, by such notables asSaint-Venant, Poisson, Lamé, and Navier.

Over the years, after many of the fundamental problems of mechanicsof materials had been solved, it became necessary to use advancedmathematical and computer techniques to solve more complex problems.As a result, this subject expanded into other areas of mechanics, such as thetheory of elasticity and the theory of plasticity. Research in these fieldsis ongoing, in order to meet the demands for solving more advancedproblems in engineering.

1.2 Equilibrium of a Deformable Body

Since statics has an important role in both the development and applicationof mechanics of materials, it is very important to have a good grasp of itsfundamentals. For this reason we will review some of the main principlesof statics that will be used throughout the text.

External Loads. A body is subjected to only two types of externalloads; namely, surface forces or body forces, Fig. 1–1.

Surface Forces. Surface forces are caused by the direct contact of onebody with the surface of another. In all cases these forces are distributedover the area of contact between the bodies. If this area is small incomparison with the total surface area of the body, then the surface forcecan be idealized as a single concentrated force, which is applied to a pointon the body. For example, the force of the ground on the wheels of abicycle can be considered as a concentrated force. If the surface loading isapplied along a narrow strip of area, the loading can be idealized as alinear distributed load, w(s). Here the loading is measured as having anintensity of force/length along the strip and is represented graphically by aseries of arrows along the line s. The resultant force of w(s) isequivalent to the area under the distributed loading curve, and thisresultant acts through the centroid C or geometric center of this area. Theloading along the length of a beam is a typical example of where thisidealization is often applied.

Body Forces. A body force is developed when one body exerts a force onanother body without direct physical contact between the bodies. Examplesinclude the effects caused by the earth’s gravitation or its electromagneticfield.Although body forces affect each of the particles composing the body,these forces are normally represented by a single concentrated force actingon the body. In the case of gravitation, this force is called the weight of thebody and acts through the body’s center of gravity.

Support Reactions. The surface forces that develop at the supportsor points of contact between bodies are called reactions. For two-dimensional problems, i.e., bodies subjected to coplanar force systems,the supports most commonly encountered are shown in Table 1–1. Notecarefully the symbol used to represent each support and the type ofreactions it exerts on its contacting member. As a general rule, if thesupport prevents translation in a given direction, then a force must bedeveloped on the member in that direction. Likewise, if rotation isprevented, a couple moment must be exerted on the member. For example,the roller support only prevents translation perpendicular or normal tothe surface. Hence, the roller exerts a normal force F on the member atits point of contact. Since the member can freely rotate about the roller,a couple moment cannot be developed on the member.

6 CHAPTER 1 STRESS

Equations of Equilibrium. Equilibrium of a body requires botha balance of forces, to prevent the body from translating or havingaccelerated motion along a straight or curved path, and a balance ofmoments, to prevent the body from rotating. These conditions can beexpressed mathematically by two vector equations

(1–1)

Here, represents the sum of all the forces acting on the body, andis the sum of the moments of all the forces about any point O

either on or off the body. If an x, y, z coordinate system is establishedwith the origin at point O, the force and moment vectors can be resolvedinto components along each coordinate axis and the above twoequations can be written in scalar form as six equations, namely,

(1–2)

Often in engineering practice the loading on a body can be representedas a system of coplanar forces. If this is the case, and the forces lie in thex–y plane, then the conditions for equilibrium of the body can bespecified with only three scalar equilibrium equations; that is,

(1–3)

Here all the moments are summed about point O and so they will bedirected along the z axis.

Successful application of the equations of equilibrium requirescomplete specification of all the known and unknown forces that act onthe body, and so the best way to account for all these forces is to drawthe body’s free-body diagram.

In order to design the horizontal membersof this building frame, it is first necessary tofind the internal loadings at various pointsalong their length.

1.2 EQUILIBRIUM OF A DEFORMABLE BODY 7

Internal Resultant Loadings. In mechanics of materials, staticsis primarily used to determine the resultant loadings that act within abody. For example, consider the body shown in Fig. 1–2a, which is held inequilibrium by the four external forces.∗ In order to obtain the internalloadings acting on a specific region within the body, it is necessary to passan imaginary section or “cut” through the region where the internalloadings are to be determined. The two parts of the body are thenseparated, and a free-body diagram of one of the parts is drawn, Fig. 1–2b.Notice that there is actually a distribution of internal force acting on the“exposed” area of the section. These forces represent the effects of thematerial of the top part of the body acting on the adjacent material ofthe bottom part.

Although the exact distribution of this internal loading may be unknown,we can use the equations of equilibrium to relate the external forces on thebottom part of the body to the distribution’s resultant force and moment,

and at any specific point O on the sectioned area, Fig. 1–2c. Itwill be shown in later portions of the text that point O is most oftenchosen at the centroid of the sectioned area, and so we will always choosethis location for O, unless otherwise stated. Also, if a member is long andslender, as in the case of a rod or beam, the section to be considered isgenerally taken perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the member.This section is referred to as the cross section.

Three Dimensions. Later in this text we will show how to relate theresultant loadings, and to the distribution of force on thesectioned area, and thereby develop equations that can be used foranalysis and design. To do this, however, the components of and acting both normal and perpendicular to the sectioned area must beconsidered, Fig. 1–2d. Four different types of resultant loadings can thenbe defined as follows:

Normal force, N. This force acts perpendicular to the area. It isdeveloped whenever the external loads tend to push or pull on the twosegments of the body.

Shear force, V. The shear force lies in the plane of the area and it isdeveloped when the external loads tend to cause the two segments ofthe body to slide over one another.

Torsional moment or torque, T. This effect is developed when theexternal loads tend to twist one segment of the body with respect tothe other about an axis perpendicular to the area.

Bending moment, M. The bending moment is caused by theexternal loads that tend to bend the body about an axis lying within theplane of the area.

In this text, note that graphical representation of a moment or torque isshown in three dimensions as a vector with an associated curl. By the right-hand rule, the thumb gives the arrowhead sense of this vector and thefingers or curl indicate the tendency for rotation (twisting or bending).

Coplanar Loadings. If the body is subjected to a coplanar system offorces,Fig. 1–3a, then only normal-force, shear-force,and bending- momentcomponents will exist at the section, Fig. 1–3b. If we use the x, y, zcoordinate axes, as shown on the left segment, then N can be obtained byapplying and V can be obtained from Finally, thebending moment can be determined by summing moments aboutpoint O (the z axis), in order to eliminate the momentscaused by the unknowns N and V.

Important Points

• Mechanics of materials is a study of the relationship between theexternal loads applied to a body and the stress and strain causedby the internal loads within the body.

• External forces can be applied to a body as distributed orconcentrated surface loadings, or as body forces that actthroughout the volume of the body.

• Linear distributed loadings produce a resultant force having amagnitude equal to the area under the load diagram, and having alocation that passes through the centroid of this area.

• A support produces a force in a particular direction on itsattached member if it prevents translation of the member in thatdirection, and it produces a couple moment on the member if itprevents rotation.

• The equations of equilibrium and must besatisfied in order to prevent a body from translating withaccelerated motion and from rotating.

• When applying the equations of equilibrium, it is important tofirst draw the free-body diagram for the body in order to accountfor all the terms in the equations.

• The method of sections is used to determine the internalresultant loadings acting on the surface of the sectioned body. Ingeneral, these resultants consist of a normal force, shear force,torsional moment, and bending moment.

The following examples illustrate this procedure numerically and alsoprovide a review of some of the important principles of statics.

Procedure for Analysis

The resultant internal loadings at a point located on the section of abody can be obtained using the method of sections. This requiresthe following steps.

Support Reactions.

• First decide which segment of the body is to be considered. If thesegment has a support or connection to another body, then beforethe body is sectioned, it will be necessary to determine thereactions acting on the chosen segment. To do this draw the free-body diagram of the entire body and then apply the necessaryequations of equilibrium to obtain these reactions.

Free-Body Diagram.

• Keep all external distributed loadings, couple moments, torques,and forces in their exact locations, before passing an imaginarysection through the body at the point where the resultant internalloadings are to be determined.

• Draw a free-body diagram of one of the “cut” segments andindicate the unknown resultants N, V, M, and T at the section.These resultants are normally placed at the point representingthe geometric center or centroid of the sectioned area.

• If the member is subjected to a coplanar system of forces, only N,V, and M act at the centroid.

• Establish the x, y, z coordinate axes with origin at the centroidand show the resultant internal loadings acting along the axes.

Equations of Equilibrium.

• Moments should be summed at the section, about each of thecoordinate axes where the resultants act. Doing this eliminatesthe unknown forces N and V and allows a direct solution for M(and T).

• If the solution of the equilibrium equations yields a negativevalue for a resultant, the assumed directional sense of theresultant is opposite to that shown on the free-body diagram.

SOLUTIONSupport Reactions. The support reactions at A do not have to bedetermined if segment CB is considered.

Free-Body Diagram. The free-body diagram of segment CB is shownin Fig. 1–4b. It is important to keep the distributed loading on thesegment until after the section is made. Only then should this loadingbe replaced by a single resultant force. Notice that the intensity of thedistributed loading at C is found by proportion, i.e., from Fig. 1–4a,

The magnitude of theresultant of the distributed load is equal to the area under theloading curve (triangle) and acts through the centroid of this area.Thus, which acts fromC as shown in Fig. 1–4b.

22 CHAPTER 1 STRESS

1.3 Stress

It was stated in Section 1.2 that the force and moment acting at aspecified point O on the sectioned area of the body, Fig. 1–9, representsthe resultant effects of the actual distribution of loading acting over thesectioned area, Fig. 1–10a. Obtaining this distribution is of primaryimportance in mechanics of materials. To solve this problem it isnecessary to establish the concept of stress.

We begin by considering the sectioned area to be subdivided intosmall areas, such as shown in Fig. 1–10a. As we reduce toa smaller and smaller size, we must make two assumptions regardingthe properties of the material. We will consider the material to becontinuous, that is, to consist of a continuum or uniform distribution ofmatter having no voids. Also, the material must be cohesive, meaningthat all portions of it are connected together, without having breaks,cracks, or separations. A typical finite yet very small force acting on

is shown in Fig. 1–10a. This force, like all the others, will have aunique direction, but for further discussion we will replace it by its threecomponents, namely, and which are taken tangent,tangent, and normal to the area, respectively. As approaches zero, sodo and its components; however, the quotient of the force and areawill, in general, approach a finite limit. This quotient is called stress, andas noted, it describes the intensity of the internal force acting on a specificplane (area) passing through a point.

(1–4)

If the normal force or stress “pulls” on as shown in Fig. 1–10a, it isreferred to as tensile stress, whereas if it “pushes” on it is calledcompressive stress.

Shear Stress. The intensity of force acting tangent to is calledthe shear stress, (tau). Here we have shear stress components,

(1–5)

Note that in this subscript notation z specifies the orientation of thearea Fig. 1–11, and x and y indicate the axes along which each shearstress acts.

General State of Stress. If the body is further sectioned byplanes parallel to the x�z plane, Fig. 1–10b, and the y–z plane, Fig. 1–10c,we can then “cut out” a cubic volume element of material that representsthe state of stress acting around the chosen point in the body. This stateof stress is then characterized by three components acting on each faceof the element, Fig. 1–12.

Units. Since stress represents a force per unit area, in theInternational Standard or SI system, the magnitudes of both normal andshear stress are specified in the basic units of newtons per square meter

This unit, called a pascal is rather small, andin engineering work prefixes such as kilo- symbolized by k,mega- symbolized by M, or giga- symbolized by G, are usedto represent larger, more realistic values of stress.* Likewise, in theFoot-Pound-Second system of units, engineers usually express stress inpounds per square inch (psi) or kilopounds per square inch (ksi), where1 kilopound 1kip2 = 1000 lb.

1.4 Average Normal Stress in an Axially Loaded Bar

In this section we will determine the average stress distribution acting onthe cross-sectional area of an axially loaded bar such as the one shown inFig. 1–13a. This bar is prismatic since all cross sections are the samethroughout its length. When the load P is applied to the bar through thecentroid of its cross-sectional area, then the bar will deform uniformlythroughout the central region of its length, as shown in Fig. 1–13b,provided the material of the bar is both homogeneous and isotropic.

Homogeneous material has the same physical and mechanical propertiesthroughout its volume, and isotropic material has these same propertiesin all directions. Many engineering materials may be approximated asbeing both homogeneous and isotropic as assumed here. Steel, forexample, contains thousands of randomly oriented crystals in each cubicmillimeter of its volume, and since most problems involving this materialhave a physical size that is very much larger than a single crystal, theabove assumption regarding its material composition is quite realistic.

Note that anisotropic materials such as wood have different propertiesin different directions, and although this is the case, like wood if theanisotropy is oriented along the bar’s axis, then the bar will also deformuniformly when subjected to the axial load P.

Average Normal Stress Distribution. If we pass a sectionthrough the bar, and separate it into two parts, then equilibrium requiresthe resultant normal force at the section to be P, Fig. 1–13c. Due to theuniform deformation of the material, it is necessary that the cross sectionbe subjected to a constant normal stress distribution, Fig. 1–13d.

Since the internal load P passes through the centroid of the cross-section the uniform stress distribution will produce zero moments aboutthe x and y axes passing through this point, Fig. 1–13d. To show this, werequire the moment of P about each axis to be equal to the moment ofthe stress distribution about the axes, namely,

These equations are indeed satisfied, since by definition of the centroid,and (See Appendix A.)

26 CHAPTER 1 STRESS

In other words, the two normal stress components on the element mustbe equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. This is referred to asuniaxial stress.

The previous analysis applies to members subjected to either tensionor compression, as shown in Fig. 1–15. As a graphical interpretation, themagnitude of the internal resultant force P is equivalent to the volumeunder the stress diagram; that is,Furthermore, as a consequence of the balance of moments, this resultantpasses through the centroid of this volume.

Although we have developed this analysis for prismatic bars, thisassumption can be relaxed somewhat to include bars that have a slighttaper. For example, it can be shown, using the more exact analysis of thetheory of elasticity, that for a tapered bar of rectangular cross section, forwhich the angle between two adjacent sides is 15°, the average normalstress, as calculated by is only 2.2% less than its value foundfrom the theory of elasticity.

Maximum Average Normal Stress. In our analysis both theinternal force P and the cross-sectional area A were constant along thelongitudinal axis of the bar, and as a result the normal stress isalso constant throughout the bar’s length. Occasionally, however, the barmay be subjected to several external loads along its axis, or a change in itscross-sectional area may occur. As a result, the normal stress within thebar could be different from one section to the next, and, if the maximumaverage normal stress is to be determined, then it becomes importantto find the location where the ratio P�A is a maximum. To do this it isnecessary to determine the internal force P at various sections along thebar. Here it may be helpful to show this variation by drawing an axial ornormal force diagram. Specifically, this diagram is a plot of the normalforce P versus its position x along the bar’s length. As a sign convention,P will be positive if it causes tension in the member, and negative if itcauses compression. Once the internal loading throughout the bar isknown, the maximum ratio of P�A can then be identified.

1.4 AVERAGE NORMAL STRESS IN AN AXIALLY LOADED BAR 27

1Important Points

• When a body subjected to external loads is sectioned, there is adistribution of force acting over the sectioned area which holdseach segment of the body in equilibrium. The intensity of thisinternal force at a point in the body is referred to as stress.

• Stress is the limiting value of force per unit area, as the areaapproaches zero. For this definition, the material is considered tobe continuous and cohesive.

• The magnitude of the stress components at a point depends uponthe type of loading acting on the body, and the orientation of theelement at the point.

• When a prismatic bar is made from homogeneous and isotropicmaterial, and is subjected to an axial force acting through thecentroid of the cross-sectional area, then the center region ofthe bar will deform uniformly. As a result, the material will besubjected only to normal stress. This stress is uniform or averagedover the cross-sectional area.

Procedure for Analysis

The equation gives the average normal stress on the cross-sectional area of a member when the section is subjected to aninternal resultant normal force P. For axially loaded members,application of this equation requires the following steps.

Internal Loading.

• Section the member perpendicular to its longitudinal axis at thepoint where the normal stress is to be determined and use thenecessary free-body diagram and force equation of equilibrium toobtain the internal axial force P at the section.

Average Normal Stress.

• Determine the member’s cross-sectional area at the section andcalculate the average normal stress

• It is suggested that be shown acting on a small volume elementof the material located at a point on the section where stress iscalculated. To do this, first draw on the face of the elementcoincident with the sectioned area A. Here acts in the samedirection as the internal force P since all the normal stresses onthe cross section develop this resultant. The normal stress onthe other face of the element acts in the opposite direction.

32 CHAPTER 1 STRESS

1.5 Average Shear Stress

Shear stress has been defined in Section 1.3 as the stress component thatacts in the plane of the sectioned area. To show how this stress candevelop, consider the effect of applying a force F to the bar in Fig. 1–20a.If the supports are considered rigid, and F is large enough, it will causethe material of the bar to deform and fail along the planes identified byAB and CD. A free-body diagram of the unsupported center segment ofthe bar, Fig. 1–20b, indicates that the shear force must beapplied at each section to hold the segment in equilibrium. The averageshear stress distributed over each sectioned area that develops this shearforce is defined by

(1–7)

Here

average shear stress at the section, which is assumed to be thesame at each point located on the sectioninternal resultant shear force on the section determined fromthe equations of equilibrium

area at the section

The distribution of average shear stress acting over the sections isshown in Fig. 1–20c. Notice that is in the same direction as V, sincethe shear stress must create associated forces all of which contribute tothe internal resultant force V at the section.

The loading case discussed here is an example of simple or directshear, since the shear is caused by the direct action of the applied load F.This type of shear often occurs in various types of simple connectionsthat use bolts, pins, welding material, etc. In all these cases, however,application of Eq. 1–7 is only approximate. A more precise investigationof the shear-stress distribution over the section often reveals that muchlarger shear stresses occur in the material than those predicted by thisequation. Although this may be the case, application of Eq. 1–7 isgenerally acceptable for many problems in engineering design andanalysis. For example, engineering codes allow its use when consideringdesign sizes for fasteners such as bolts and for obtaining the bondingstrength of glued joints subjected to shear loadings.

34 CHAPTER 1 STRESS

1 Important Points

• If two parts are thin or small when joined together, the appliedloads may cause shearing of the material with negligible bending.If this is the case, it is generally assumed that an average shearstress acts over the cross-sectional area.

• When shear stress acts on a plane, then equilibrium of a volumeelement of material at a point on the plane requires associatedshear stress of the same magnitude act on three adjacent sides ofthe element.

t

Procedure for Analysis

The equation is used to determine the average shearstress in the material. Application requires the following steps.

Internal Shear.

• Section the member at the point where the average shear stress isto be determined.

• Draw the necessary free-body diagram, and calculate the internalshear force V acting at the section that is necessary to hold thepart in equilibrium.

Average Shear Stress.

• Determine the sectioned area A, and determine the averageshear stress

• It is suggested that be shown on a small volume element ofmaterial located at a point on the section where it is determined.To do this, first draw on the face of the element, coincidentwith the sectioned area A. This stress acts in the same directionas V. The shear stresses acting on the three adjacent planes canthen be drawn in their appropriate directions following thescheme shown in Fig. 1–21.

Determine the average shear stress in the 20-mm-diameterpin at A and the 30-mm-diameter pin at B that support thebeam in Fig. 1–22a.

SOLUTIONInternal Loadings. The forces on the pins can be obtained byconsidering the equilibrium of the beam, Fig. 1–22b.

Thus, the resultant force acting on pin A is

The pin at A is supported by two fixed “leaves” and so the free-bodydiagram of the center segment of the pin shown in Fig. 1–22c has twoshearing surfaces between the beam and each leaf. The force of thebeam (21.36 kN) acting on the pin is therefore supported by shearforce on each of these surfaces. This case is called double shear. Thus,

In Fig. 1–22a, note that pin B is subjected to single shear, which occurson the section between the cable and beam, Fig. 1–22d. For this pinsegment,

46 CHAPTER 1 STRESS

1.6 Allowable Stress

To properly design a structural member or mechanical element it isnecessary to restrict the stress in the material to a level that will be safe.To ensure this safety, it is therefore necessary to choose an allowablestress that restricts the applied load to one that is less than the load themember can fully support. There are many reasons for doing this. Forexample, the load for which the member is designed may be differentfrom actual loadings placed on it. The intended measurements of astructure or machine may not be exact, due to errors in fabrication or inthe assembly of its component parts. Unknown vibrations, impact, oraccidental loadings can occur that may not be accounted for in thedesign. Atmospheric corrosion, decay, or weathering tend to causematerials to deteriorate during service. And lastly, some materials, suchas wood, concrete, or fiber-reinforced composites, can show highvariability in mechanical properties.

One method of specifying the allowable load for a member is to use anumber called the factor of safety. The factor of safety (F.S.) is a ratio ofthe failure load to the allowable load Here is found fromexperimental testing of the material, and the factor of safety is selectedbased on experience so that the above mentioned uncertainties areaccounted for when the member is used under similar conditions ofloading and geometry. Stated mathematically,

(1–8)

If the load applied to the member is linearly related to the stressdeveloped within the member, as in the case of using and

then we can also express the factor of safety as a ratio of the failure stress (or ) to the allowable stress (or );∗ that is,

1.7 DESIGN OF SIMPLE CONNECTIONS 47

1In any of these equations, the factor of safety must be greater than 1 in

order to avoid the potential for failure. Specific values depend on thetypes of materials to be used and the intended purpose of the structureor machine. For example, the F.S. used in the design of aircraft or space-vehicle components may be close to 1 in order to reduce the weight ofthe vehicle. Or, in the case of a nuclear power plant, the factor of safetyfor some of its components may be as high as 3 due to uncertaintiesin loading or material behavior. In many cases, the factor of safety for aspecific case can be found in design codes and engineering handbooks.These values are intended to form a balance of ensuring public andenvironmental safety and providing a reasonable economic solution todesign.

1.7 Design of Simple Connections

By making simplifying assumptions regarding the behavior of thematerial, the equations and can often be used toanalyze or design a simple connection or mechanical element. Inparticular, if a member is subjected to normal force at a section, itsrequired area at the section is determined from

(1–11)

On the other hand, if the section is subjected to an average shear force,then the required area at the section is

(1–12)

As discussed in Sec. 1.6, the allowable stress used in each of theseequations is determined either by applying a factor of safety to thematerial’s normal or shear failure stress or by finding these stressesdirectly from an appropriate design code.

Three examples of where the above equations apply are shown inFig. 1–25.

48 CHAPTER 1 STRESS

1 Important Point

• Design of a member for strength is based on selecting anallowable stress that will enable it to safely support its intendedload. Since there are many unknown factors that can influencethe actual stress in a member, then depending upon the intendeduse of the member, a factor of safety is applied to obtain theallowable load the member can support.

Procedure for Analysis

When solving problems using the average normal and shear stressequations, a careful consideration should first be made as to choosethe section over which the critical stress is acting. Once this sectionis determined, the member must then be designed to have asufficient area at the section to resist the stress that acts on it. Thisarea is determined using the following steps.

Internal Loading.

• Section the member through the area and draw a free-bodydiagram of a segment of the member.The internal resultant force atthe section is then determined using the equations of equilibrium.

Required Area.

• Provided the allowable stress is known or can be determined,the required area needed to sustain the load at the section is thendetermined from or A = V>tallow.A = P>sallow

Appropriate factors of safety must beconsidered when designing cranes andcables used to transfer heavy loads.

SOLUTIONTo solve the problem we will determine P for each possible failurecondition. Then we will choose the smallest value. Why?

Normal Stress. Using the method of sections, the axial load withinregion FE of the shaft is 2P, whereas the largest axial force, 3P, occurswithin region EC, Fig. 1–28b. The variation of the internal loading isclearly shown on the normal-force diagram, Fig. 1–28c. Since the cross-sectional area of the entire shaft is constant, region EC is subjected tothe maximum average normal stress.Applying Eq. 1–11, we have

normal stress in the shaft to be exceeded.

CHAPTER REVIEW

If a bar is made from homogeneousisotropic material and it is subjected toa series of external axial loads thatpass through the centroid of the crosssection, then a uniform normal stressdistribution will act over the crosssection. This average normal stress canbe determined from whereP is the internal axial load at thesection.

s = P>A,

s =

P

A

The average shear stress can bedetermined using whereV is the shear force acting on thecross-sectional area A. This formulais often used to find the averageshear stress in fasteners or in partsused for connections.

tavg = V>A,

tavg =

V

A

The design of any simple connectionrequires that the average stress alongany cross section not exceed anallowable stress of or These values are reported in codes andare considered safe on the basis ofexperiments or through experience.Sometimes a factor of safety isreported provided the ultimate stressis known.
