_______________________________________________________________________ PROBLEM (9.7) A rectangular shaft of depth a and width b is subjected to an axial tensile load P and a torque T, as shown in Fig. P9.7. What is the largest permissible value of T if the allowable tensile stress in the shaft is σ all ? Given: a = 3 in., b = 2 in., P = 30 kips, σ all = 20 ksi SOLUTION P 30 = = 5 ksi A 3× 2 From Table 5.1, with a b = 1.5 : T T τ= = = 0.3608T 2 α ab (0.23)(3)(2) 2 σ= σ1 = σ (T in kip ⋅ in.) σ + ( ) 2 + τ 2 = σ all 2 2 = 2.5 + (2.5) 2 + (0.3608Tall ) 2 = 20 or Tall = 48 kip ⋅ in.
