A single square-thread power screw has an input power of 3 kW at a speed of 1 rev/s.

The
screw has a diameter of 40 mm and a pitch of 8 mm. The frictional coefficients are 0.14 for
the threads and 0.09 for the collar, with a collar friction radius of 50 mm. Find the axial
resisting load F and the combined efficiency of the screw and collar.
An M14 × 2 hex-head bolt with a nut is used to clamp together two 15-mm steel plates.
(a) Determine a suitable length for the bolt, rounded up to the nearest 5 mm.
(b) Determine the bolt stiffness.
(c) Determine the stiffness of the members.
For a bolted assembly with eight bolts, the stiffness of each bolt is kb = 1.0 MN/mm and the
stiffness of the members is km = 2.6 MN/mm per bolt. The joint is subject to occasional
disassembly for maintenance and should be preloaded accordingly. Assume the external load
is equally distributed to all the bolts. It has been determined to use M6 × 1 class 5.8 bolts with
rolled threads.
(a) Determine the maximum external load Pmax that can be applied to the entire joint
without exceeding the proof strength of the bolts.
(b) Determine the maximum external load Pmax that can be applied to the entire joint
without causing the members to come out of compression.
The figure shows a cast-iron bearing block that is to be bolted to a steel ceiling joist and is
to support a gravity load of 18 kN. Bolts used are M24 ISO 8.8 with coarse threads and with
4.6-mm-thick steel washers under the bolt head and nut. The joist flanges are 20 mm in
thickness, and the dimension A, shown in the figure, is 20 mm. The modulus of elasticity of
the bearing block is 135 GPa.
(a) Find the wrench torque required if the fasteners are lubricated during assembly and the
joint is to be permanent.
(b) Determine the factors of safety guarding against yielding, overload, and joint separation.
A bolted lap joint using ISO class 5.8 bolts and members made of cold-drawn SAE 1040 steel
is shown in the figure. Find the tensile shear load F that can be applied to this connection to
provide a minimum factor of safety of 2.5 for the following failure modes: shear of bolts,
bearing on bolts, bearing on members, and tension of members.
