PROBLEM (9.91) A cast iron ASTM grade A-48 shaft of circular cross section is subjected
simultaneously to a torque T and a vertical load P (Fig. P9.91). Calculate the diameter d of the shaft
based on the of a safety factor of ns, employing:
(a) The maximum normal stress theory of failure.
(b) The Coulomb-Mohr theory of failure.
Given: u

u
= 95 ksi (from Table B.4), L = 10 in., T = 5 kip
