Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Consider a bar tensioned in a construction project. If the allowable stress is 1500 psi and the expected stress is 1800 psi due to applied loads, discuss the implications, including possible engineering solutions.
💡 Hint: Consider material properties and structural design adjustments.
Analyze a structural component that has a deflection limit of 0.75 inches. If testing predicts a deflection of 1 inch under standard loading, how would you approach redesigning this component?
💡 Hint: Think critically about the design factors influencing deflection.
