Machine Design - 1 - Question 4

A flat plate 30mm wide and “t”mm wide is subjected to a tensile force of 5kN. The plate has a circular hole of diameter 15mm with the centre coinciding with the diagonal intersection point of the rectangle. If stress concentration factor=2.16, find the thickness of the plate if maximum allowable tensile stress is 80N/mm².

Detailed Solution for Machine Design - 1 - Question 4

σ=P/ (w-d) x t

σ=5000/(30-15)xt ;

σ(max)=K x σ  

σ(max)=2.16 x σ  

σ(max)=720/t;

Also, σ(max)=80.

so 80 = 720/t

t = 9 mm
