Solution to Problem 130 Bearing Stress

Problem 130
Figure P-130 shows a roof truss and the detail of the riveted connection at joint B. Using allowable stresses of
τ = 70 MPa and σb= 140 MPa, how many 19-mm-diameter rivets are required to fasten member BC to the
gusset plate? Member BE? What is the largest average tensile or compressive stress in BC and BE?

Solution 130

At Joint C:
ΣFV = 0

BC = 96 kN (Tension)

Consider the section through member BD, BE, and CE:

ΣMA = 0

3
8( BE) = 4(96)
5

BE = 80 kN (Compression)

For Member BC:

Based on shearing of rivets:
BC = τ A Where A = area of 1 rivet × number of rivets, n
1 2
96 000 = 70[ π(19 )n ]
4

n = 4.8 say 5 rivets

Based on bearing of member:

BC = σ A b Where Ab = rivet diameter × thickness of BC × n rivets
b

96 000 = 140[ 19(6)n ]

n = 6.02 say 7 rivets

Use 7 rivets for member BC. answer

For member BE:

Based on shearing of rivets:
BE = τ A Where A = area of 1 rivet × number of rivets, n

1 2
80 000 = 70[ π(19 )n ]
4

10/10/2019 Solution to Problem 130 Bearing Stress | Strength of Materials Review

Based on bearing of member:

BE = σb Ab Where Ab = rivet diameter × thickness of BE × n rivets
80 000 = 140[ 19(13)n ]

n = 2.3 say 3 rivets

Use 5 rivets for member BE. answer

Relevant data from the table (Appendix B of textbook): Properties of Equal Angle Sections: SI Units

Designation Area
L75 × 75 × 6 864 mm2

L75 × 75 × 13 1780 mm2

Tensile stress of member BC (L75 × 75 × 6):

P 96(1000)
σ = =
A 864 − 19(6)

σ = 128 Mpa answer

Compressive stress of member BE (L75 × 75 × 13):

P 80(1000)
σ = =
A 1780

σ = 44.94 Mpa answer

Bakit hinde ni minus ang area sa may BE katulad nang ginawa sa BC na 864-19(6)?
