A single horizontal force P of 150 lb
magnitude is applied to end D of lever
ABD. Determine (a) the normal and
shearing stresses on an element at
point H having sides parallel to the x
and y axes, (b) the principal planes and
principal stresses at the point H.
SOLUTION:
• Determine an equivalent force-couple
system at the center of the transverse
section passing through H.
• Evaluate the normal and shearing
stresses at H.
• Determine the principal planes and
calculate the principal stresses.
