Worked Example 1 Calculate the force needed to guillotine a piece of metal 3.2mm thick and 1.2m wide given that the ultimate shear stress is 50MPa. Solution L = 1.2m t = m τ = 50 x 106 Pa The area of the rectangle to be cut is m x 1.2m A = x 1.2 A = m2 τ = F/A so F = τA = 50 x 106 x = N F = 192kN

Worked Example 2 Calculate the force needed to punch a hole 35mm diameter in a sheet of metal 2.5mm thick given that the ultimate shear stress is 60MPa. Solution The area to be sheared is the circumference x thickness d = 0.035m t = m τ = 60 x 106 Pa A = πd x t = π x x A = 275 x 10-6m2 τ =F/A so F= τA = 60 x 106 x 275 x 10-6 = 16493N F = 16.5kN

Worked Example 3 Calculate the force needed to shear a pin 6mm diameter given that the ultimate shear stress is 60MPa. Solution The area to be sheared is the cross sectional area. R = 0.003m τ = 60 x 106 A = πR2 = π x A = 28.3 x 10-6 m2 F = τA = 60 x 106 x 28.3 x 10-6 = 1696N F = 1.7kN

Self Assessment Ex 1. Solution 1
w = 0.7m T = 0.004m . τ = 45 x 106Pa A = 0.7 x = m2 F = τ A F = 45 x 106 x F = N = 126kN
11
Self Assessment Ex 1. Solution 2
D = 0.025m . T = m . τ = 60 x 106Pa A = πd x t = π x x = m2 F = τ A F = 60 x 106 x F = N = 7.539kN
12
Self Assessment Ex 1. Solution 3
R = 0.004m τ = 55 x 106Pa A = πR2 = π x = m2 F = τ A F = 55 x 106 x F = N = 2.764kN
13
Self Assessment Ex 1. Solution 4
F = 2.5 Tonnes = 2.5 x 103 x 9.81 = 24525N T = 0.003m D = τ = 75 x 106Pa A = F/ τ = 24525/75 x 106 = m2 A = πdt so, d = A/πt = /(π x 0.003) d = m A 35mm hole cannot be punched.

Double Shear
15
Worked Example 4 A pin is used as a clevis in a supporting tie. The force in the tie will be a maximum of 70kN and the ultimate shear stress allowed in the pin is 100MPa. Calculate the minimum pin diameter necessary in order to achieve a Safety Factor of 4. Solution Safety Factor = 4 τ = 100 x 106 The Working Stress = 100/4 τ= 25MPa F = 70 x 103N The pin is in Double Shear so τ = F/2A so A = F/2τ = 70 x 103/ (2 x 25 x 106) A = m2 But A = πD2/4 So D = √(4A/π) = √(4 x /π) = √ D = 0.043m (NOTE:- This has been rounded UP)
16
Self Assessment Ex 2. Solution 1
R = 0.005m . τ = 70 x 106Pa S.F. = Working Stress (WS) = 70 x 106/2 = 35 x 106Pa A = πR2 = π x = m2 WS = F/2A so F =2A x WS =2 x x 35 x 106 F = 5498N F = 5.5kN
17
Self Assessment Ex 2. Solution 2
F = 3500N . τ = 90 x 106Pa A = F/2 τ = 3500/(2 x 90 x 106) A = m2 A = πD2/4 so D2 = 4A/π = 4 x /π D2 = D = √ D = m D = 5mm
