, Problem 1-7

Plot the idealized stress-strain diagram for a 6-in. wide by ½-in. thick plate and a 6-in. wide by 1-in.
thick plate of ASTM A36 steel. Assume that the original length between two points on the specimen
over which the elongation will be measured (i.e. the gage length) is 2-in.

Solution:

Gage length, Lo = 2 in.
For 6 x ½-in. plate, Area = (6 in.)(½ in.) = 3 in2
E = 29,000 ksi

P Stress = P/A Strain,  = P/EA Elongation, Lo = Strain x gage length = Lo

Problem 1-8

Determine the most economical layout of the roof framing (joists and girders) and the gage
(thickness) of the roof deck for a building with a 25 ft x 35 ft typical bay size. The total roof dead
load is 25 psf and the snow load is 35 psf. Assume a 1½” deep galvanized wide rib deck and an
estimated weight of roof framing of 6 psf.

*Assume beams (or joists) span the 35’ direction
* Assume 3-span condition
*Total roof load = (25psf + 35psf) – 6psf = 54psf
