EXAMPLE
A thin steel plate has a uniform
thickness t = 1 in., as shown. Its
elastic modulus, E = 30 x 106 psi, and
weight density, ρ = 0.2836 lb/in3.
The plate is subjected to a point load
P = 100 lb at its midpoint and a
traction force T = 36 lb/ft.
Determine:
a)Displacements at the mid-point
and at the free end,
b) Normal stresses in the plate, and
c) Reaction force at the support.
