A bolted joint using a grade 8.8 M12 bolt has a Stiffness Constant of 0.40. When an external load of 120 kN is applied to the joint, what is the additional load that is added to the bolt? (Enter answer in kN to 1 decimal place) Answer:

Step 1
The stiffness of the joint is given by the formula: Stiffness = Stiffness Constant * Bolt Area The bolt area can be calculated using the formula: Bolt Area = π * (Bolt Diameter)^2 / 4 Given that the bolt diameter is M12, which means it has a diameter of 12 mm, Show more…

For a bolted assembly with eight bolts, the stiffness of each bolt is kb = 1.0 MN/mm and the stiffness of the members is km = 2.6 MN/mm per bolt. The bolts are preloaded to 75 percent of proof strength. Assume the external load is equally distributed to all the bolts. The bolts are M6 × 1 class 5.8 with rolled threads. A fluctuating external load is applied to the entire joint with Pmax = 60 kN and Pmin = 20 kN. (a) Determine the yielding factor of safety. (b) Determine the overload factor of safety. (c) Determine the factor of safety based on joint separation. (d) Determine the fatigue factor of safety using the Goodman criterion.

Using the method of joints, determine the force in each member of the truss shown. The load P = 64 kN. (Round the final answers to their nearest whole number.) The force in member AC (FAC) is (Tension). The force in member CE (FCE) is (Tension). The force in member DE (FDE) is (Compression). The force in member BD (FBD) is (Compression). The force in member CD (FCD) is (Tension). The force in member BC (FBC) is (Compression).

The truss shown below has hinge support at point A, a horizontal roller at point B, and is subjected to two point loads (P1 and P2). If P1 = 19 kN and P2 = 99 kN, what is the force, in kN, in member DE?
