Solutions to Chapter 1 Problems
S.1.1
The principal stresses are given directly by EST (1.11) and (1.12) in which ax = 80 N/mm2, yy = 0
(or vice versa), and ax = 45 N/mm. Thus, from Eq. (1.11),

80 1 pffiffiffiffiffi2ffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi ffiffiffiffiffi2ffi
σ I = 2 + 2 80 + 4 × 45
i.e.
I = 100.2 N/mm2
From Eq. (1.12),
80 1 up ffiffiffiffi2ffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi ffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi2ffi
Σ II = — 80 + 4 × 45
2 2
i.e.
Lini = —20.2 N/mm2
The directions of the principal stresses are defined by the angle θ in Fig. 1.8(b) in which θ is given by
Eq. (1.10). Hence,
2 × 45 1 . 1 2 5
Tan 2θ
= =
80 — 0
Which gives
θ = 24°11' and θ = 114°11'
It is clear from the derivation of EST (1.11) and (1.12) that the first value of θ corresponds to me while
the second value corresponds to lini.
Finally, the maximum shear stress is obtained from either of EST (1.14) or (1.15). Hence
from Eq. (1.15),
100.2 — (—20.2) 2
Mix = 2 = 60.2 N/mm
And will act on planes at 45° to the principal planes.
S.1.2
The principal stresses are given directly by EST (1.11) and (1.12) in which ax = 50 N/mm2,
Yy =–35 N/mm2, and ax = 40 N/mm2. Thus, from Eq. (1.11),
