Chapter 1: Stress
Introduction
Mechanics of materials is a study of the
relationship between the external loads on a
body and the intensity of the internal loads
within the body.

The hoist in the figure
consists of the beam AB
and attached pulleys, the
cable, and the motor.
Determine the resultant
internal loadings acting on
the cross section at C if the
motor is lifting the 2000 N
(approximate 200 kg) load
W with constant velocity.
Neglect the weight of the
pulleys and beam.

Determine the
resultant internal
loading on the cross
section through point C
of the pliers. There is a
pin at A and the jaws at

used to support the
cable of a scaffold
over the side of a
building. If it
consists of a
smooth rod that
contacts the
parapet of a wall at
points A, B, and C,

normal force, shear
force, and moment

Stress
Distribution of internal loading is important in
mechanics of materials.
We will consider the material to be continuous.
This intensity of internal force at a point is called
stress.

Average Normal Stress in an Axially Loaded Bar
When a cross-sectional area bar is subjected to
axial force through the centroid, it is only subjected
to normal stress.
Stress is assumed to be averaged over the area.

Allowable Stress
Many unknown factors that influence the actual
stress in a member.
A factor of safety is needed to obtained allowable

Link BC is 6 mm thick and
is made of a steel with a
450 MPa ultimate strength
in tension. What should be
its width w if the structure
shown is being designed to
support a 20 kN load P with
a factor of safety of 3?
Example 13
Member B is subject to
a compressive force of
3600 N. If A and B are
both made of wood and
are 10 mm thick,
determine the nearest 5

average shear stress
does not exceed allow =

Example 14
The two members are pinned together at B as shown. Top view of the
pin connections at A and B are also given in the figure. If the pins
have an allowable shear stress of allow = 90 MPa and the allowable
tensile stress of rod CB is (t) allow = 115 MPa, determine:
a. to nearest mm the smallest diameter of pin A and B,
b. the diameter of rod CB necessary to support the load.
Example 15
Determine the required
cross-sectional area of
member BC and the
diameter of the pins at A and

the allowable shear stress is
allow = 30 MPa.
Example 16
In the structure shown, an 8 mm diameter pin is used at A, and 12
mm diameter pins are used at B and D. Knowing that the ultimate
shearing stress is 100 MPa at all connections and that the ultimate
normal stress is 250 MPa in each of the two links joining B and D,
determine the allowable load P if an overall factor of safety of 3.0 is
desired.
