A stepped steel shaft consists of a hollow shaft 2m

long, with an outside diameter of 100 mm and an

inside diameter of 70mm, rigidly attached to a
solid shaft 1.5m long, and 70mm in diameter.
Determine the maximum torque that can be
applied without exceeding a shearing stress of
70MPa or a twist of 2.5o in a 3.5 m length. Use
G=83Gpa

A solid steel shaft is loaded as shown. Using

G=83Gpa, determine the required diameter of the
shaft if the shearing stress is limited to 60MPa and
the angle of rotation at the free end is not to
exceed 4.

A flange bolt coupling consists of 6-10mm

diameter steel bolts on a bolt circle 300mm in
diameter and 4-10mm diameter steel on a
concentric bolt circle 200mm in diameter. What
torque can be applied without exceeding a
shearing stress of 60MPa in the bolts? B)
Determine the number of 10mm steel bolts that
must be used on the 300mm bolt circle of the
coupling to increase the torque capacity to 8KN-m.

The connection of 12 rivets shown, the load P =

200kN passes through the center of rivet C and
has a slope of 4/3. Determine the resultant load on
A flanged bolt coupling consists of eight steel 20mm bolts spaced evenly around a bolt circle
of300mm in diameter. Determine the torque
capacity of the coupling if the allowable shearing
stress in the bolts is 40MPa.
