Q1) a) Explain the following [4]
• Factors considered for selection of Factor of safety
• Standards & Codes

b) Two shafts are connected by means of cotter joint. The inside diameter
of the socket is 0.5 times outer diameter of the socket. The rods are
subjected to a axial tensile force of 50kN. The cotter is made of steel
(Sut = 400MPa) and factor of safety is 4. Assume width of cotter is 5
times of thickness. Calculate : width and thickness of cotter i) on the
basis of shear failure. ii) on the basis of bending failure. [6]

subjected to a completely reversed axial load OF ‘1000 kN. The rod is
machined on a lathe and the reliability is 90%. There is no stress
concentration. Determine the diameter of the rod using a factor of safety
of 2 for an infinite conditions. Assume Ka = 0.78 , Kb = 0.85, for 90%
reliability = 0.868. [6]
