Question

A steel rod is subjected to a reversed axial load of 180 kN. Find the diameter of the rod for a factor of safety of 2. Neglect column action. The material has an ultimate tensile strength of 1070 MPa and yield strength of 910 MPa. The endurance limit in reversed bending may be assumed to be one-half of the ultimate tensile strength. Other correction factors may be taken as follows: For axial loading (Ka) = 0.7; For machined surface (Ksur) = 0.8 ; For size (Ksz) = 0.85 ; For stress concentration(Kf)= 1.0.
