16. A machine component is subjected to a flexural stress which fluctuates between +300 MN/m2.Determine the value of minimum ultimate strength according to 1.Gerber relation; 2. Modified Goodman relation; and 3. Soderberg relation Take yield strength 0.55 Ultimate strength Endurance strength 0.5 Ultimate strength; and factor of safety 2. Or A 50 mm diameter shaft is made from carbon steel having ultimate tensile strength of 630 MPa. It is subjected to a torque which fluctuates between 2000 N-m to 800 N-m. Using Soderberg method, calculate the factor of safety. Assume suitable values for any other data needed.

The working stress in the bolts should not exceed 30 MPa. Assume that the same material is used for shaft and key and that the crushing stress is twice the value of its shear stress. The maximum torque is 25% greater than the full load torque. The shear stress for cast iron is 14 MPa. Or A 45 mm diameter shaft is made of steel with a yield strength of 400 MPa. A parallel key of size 14 mm wide and 9 mm thick made of steel with a yield strength of 340 MPa is to be used. Find the required length of key, if the shaft is loaded to transmit the maximum permissible torque. Use maximum shear stress theory and assume a factor of safety of 2.

Assume allowable stresses in tension and compression of the plate material as 112 MPa and 200 MPa respectively and shear stress of the rivets as 84 MPa. Show the disposition of the rivets for maximum joint efficiency and determine the joint efficiency. Take diameter of rivet hole as 25.5 mm for a 24 mm diameter rivet. Or
For supporting the travelling crane in a workshop, the brackets are fixed on steel columns as shown in fig 1. The maximum load that comes on the bracket is 12kN acting vertically at a distance of 400 mm from the face of the column. The vertical face of the bracket is secured to a column by four bolts, in two rows (two in each

row) at a distance of 50 mm from the lower edge of the bracket. Determine the size of the bolt if the permissible value of the tensile stress for the bolt material 84 Mpa. Also find the cross-section of the arm of the bracket which is rectangular.
19. A mechanism used in printing machinery consists of a tension spring assembled with a preload of 30 N. The wire diameter of spring is 2 mm with a spring index of 6. The spring has 18 active coils. The spring wire is hard drawn and oil tempered having following material properties: Design shear stress 680 MPa; Modulus of rigidity 80 kN/mm2. Determine:
1. The initial torsional shear stress in the wire;
2. spring rate; and
3. The force to cause the body of the spring to its yield strength. Or A helical spring is made from a wire of 6 mm diameter and has outside diameter of 75 mm. If the permissible shear stress is 350Mpa and modulus of rigidity 84 KN/mm2, Find the axial load which the spring can the deflection per active turn.
