particular point selected for analysis. Here you are to compute factors of safety, for stress
elements at A and B of the member shown in the figure. This bar is made of AISI 1006
cold-drawn steel and is loaded by the forces F = 0.55 kN, P = 4.0 kN,
and T = 25 N · m, Sy = 280 MPa
The figure shows a crank loaded by a force F = 1000 N which causes twisting and
bending of the 3/4 -in-diameter shaft fixed to a support at the origin of the reference
system. In actuality, the support may be an inertia which we wish to rotate, but for the
purposes of a strength analysis we can consider this to be a statics problem. The material
of the shaft AB is hot-rolled AISI 1018 steel Sy=220 MPa. Using the maximum-shear-
stress theory, find the factor of safety based on the stress at point A.
