Example #3 : Problem 6-23 Shigley
Given:
• The figure shows the free-body diagram of a connecting-link portion
having stress concentration at three places. The dimensions are: r = 0.25in,
d = 0.75in, h = 0.50in, w1=3.75in, and w2 = 2.5in. The forces F fluctuate
between a tension of 4 Kip and a compression of 16 Kip.
• Neglect column action. Find the least factor of safety if material is colddrawn AISI 1018 steel.

Example #3: Problem 6-23 Shigley
Solution:
• From Table A-20 (Shiggley)
– Sut = 64 Kpsi
– Syt = 54 Kpsi
• From your note:
– S’e = 0.504 Sut = 32.3Kpsi
– (Note: You could use S’e =0.45Sut in all your calculations. If you do,
then set CL = 1 and you will still obtain the same result)
• Table 7-4 in your note:
– a = 2.7Kpsi, b = -0.265
–
–
–
–
CF = Ka = aSbut = 2.7 Kpsi (64Kpsi)-0.265
CF = Ka = 0.897
Cs = Kb =1, CL = Kc = 0.923 (Equation 7-22)
Se = CFCsCILCRCTKeS’e (Equation 7-13)
= 0.897(1)(0.923)(32.3) Kpsi (The value for Ke is not included here,
you can include it if you want to)
= 26.7 kpsi
