9-1Introduction
The intensities of the internal resisting force are called stresses.
StaticsAll bodies are assumed to be rigid.
Strength of MaterialsBodies are considered deformable.Deformation per unit length is called the strain.
Two properties that affect how a body (member) will react to loading:1. The Material2. Shape
Definitions:Strength Load carrying capacity based on stresses inside a memberStiffness Ability to resist deformation. Deformation characteristics. (Serviceability)Stability The ability of a slender member to maintain its initial configuration without buckling while
being subjected to compressive loading.
9-2Normal and Shear Stresses
Stress ≡ the intensities of internal forces per unit area
There are two types of stresses:1. Normal Stresses (σ) - are caused by internal forces normal (perpendicular ) to the area in question.2. Shear Stresses (τ) - are caused by internal forces tangential (parallel ) to the area under question.
¾ Stresses are the most important concepts in the study of strength of materials. ¾ Whenever a body is subjected to external loads, stresses are induced within the body. ¾ Whether the material will fail and to what extent it will deform depends on the amount of stresses
induced within the body.

9-3Direct Normal Stresses
Normal Stress (σ) - intensity of internal force perpendicular to the area under question.
(a) If the bar is in equilibrium, any segment must be in equilibrium when cut by a transverse plane.
(b) Equilibrium conditions requires that the internal force in the section be equal to the external force P.
(c) The internal force is normal (perpendicular ) to the section, the stress induced is the normal stress.
Normal stresses due to axial loads through the centroids of the cross-sections are usually distributed uniformly over a cross section.

Rope Construction � Rope is sometimes generally referred to as cordage � Rope construction involves twisting fibers together to form yarn.
For twisting rope, the yarn is then twisted into strands, and the strands twisted into rope.
� Three-stranded twisted rope is the most common construction. � For braided rope, the yarn is braided rather than being twisted
into strands. � Double-braided rope has a braided core with a braided cover. � Plaited rope is made by braiding twisted strands. � Other rope construction includes combinations of these three
techniques such as a three-strand twisted core with a braided cover.
� The concept of forming fibers or filaments into yarn and yarn into strands or braids is fundamental to the rope-making process.
A 1-½ in diameter fitness rope is composed of three strands. Each strand is made of 10 yarns and each yarn is made of 100 fibers. The tension in the rope is 240 lb. Determine the normal stress in the rope, strand, yarn, and fiber.

Direct ShearConsider a block with a protruded part as shown in the figure below.
¾ A horizontal force P is applied to the block's protruded part as shown above in (a). ¾ The force P tends to shear the part off the block along the shear plane abcd. ¾ The body resists the force P by developing resisting shear stresses in the shear plane. ¾ The resultant of the shear stresses must be equal to the applied force P, as shown in (b). ¾ The shear stress may not be uniformly distributed over the shear area As.
The average shear stress, however, can be calculated from:

9-5Bearing Stresses
If two bodies are pressed against each other, compressive forces are developed on the area of contact. The pressure caused by these surface loads is called bearing stress.
Examples of bearing stress are the soil pressure beneath a pier and the contact pressure between a rivet or bolt and the side of the hole it is in.
If the bearing stress is large enough, it can locally crush the material, which can lead to more serious problems. To reduce bearing stresses, engineers sometimes employ bearing plates, the purpose of which is to distribute the contact forces over a larger area.
Soil Bearing CapacityThe Bearing Capacity of Soils is perhaps the most important all all the topics in soil engineering. Bearing Capacity is the capacity of the soil to support the loads applied to the ground. The bearing capacity of soil is the maximum average contact pressure between the foundation and the soil which should not produce shear failure in the soil.

Lap Joint - Bearing StressConsider the lap joint formed by the two plates that are bolted together as shown.
The bearing stress caused by the bolt is not constant; it actually varies from zero at the sides of the hole to a maximum behind the bolt.
This complicated stress distribution is avoided by assuming that the bearing stress σb is uniformly distributed over a reduced area.
The reduced area Ab is take to be the projected area of the bolt:
Ab = td
where t is the thickness of the plate and d represents the diameter of the bolt.

where As is the cross-sectional area of the rivet.
Since the shear stress occurs in only one section of the rivet, it is said to be in single shear.If there are several rivets in the joint, the load is assumed to be shared equally by the rivets.

Since the shear stresses occurs in two sections of the rivet, the rivet is said to be in double shear.If there are several rivets on each side of the joint, the load is assumed to be shared equally by the rivets.

ExampleThe lap joint shown is fastened by four rivets of ¾-in. diameter. Find the maximum load P that can be applied if the working stresses are 14 ksi for shear in the rivet and 18 ksi for bearing in the plate. Assume that the applied load is distributed evenly among the four rivets, and neglect friction between the plates.
Solution.Calculate P using each of the two design criteria. The largest safe load will be the smaller of the two values.

The Shaft keyConnects a gear to a shaft.The moment M on the gear is transmitted to the shaft through the key.The key is subjected to forces (labeled P).These forces are assumed to be concentrated on the rim of the shaft.
The moment Pr of P about the center of the shaft must be equal to the transmitted moment M.
The average shear stress at section m-m of the key is
where b is the width of the key, L is the length of the key, and r is the radius of the shaft. For a square key, the width b is approximately equal to one-quarter of the shaft diameter.
187
Bearing Stress in Shaft KeyBearing stress occurs between the key and the gear and between the key and the shaft.The compressive force P is assumed to be uniformly distributed over an area (h/2)L
The bearing stress is, therefore,
where M = the moment transmitted by the key h = the height of the key L = the length of the key r = the radius of the shaft
188
Bearing Stress Between Rivet and PlateIn the lap joint and butt joint, bearing stresses occur between rivets or bolts and the plates.
The maximum bearing stress is approximately equal to the value obtained by dividing the compressive force by the projected area of the rivet onto the plate.
The bearing stress between the rivet or the bolt and the plate is computed by
