Hints for the problems Problem 1.26: - - - - The reaction at A has two components (Ax) and (Ay). You will use the two components to calculate the reaction at C When using Sum of moments about one, the load force is divided into two components. The Distance is also divided into two components. The reaction at C has two components (Cx) and (Cy). Find both of them through equilibrium equations and Free Body Diagram (FBD) When calculating the average shearing stress and bearing stress, the resultant force C should be used. C = C. 2 2 Problem 1.29: - - - Remember Normal Stress (Axial Stress) is perpendicular to the surface and Shear stress is parallel to the surface P will be divided into two components What is the surface area (A)?
