Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A truck with dual rear wheels exerts a combined load of 20 kN. If converted to an equivalent single wheel load, what is the assumed load per single wheel?

💡 Hint: Consider how dual loads can be simplified.

Question 2

Explain the long-term effects on pavement if a vehicle travels consistently at creep speed (2 km/hr) versus normal highway speed (24 km/hr) over a set time.

💡 Hint: Reflect on the impact of continuous stress on materials over time.
