Problem 2. (250/0)
Two blocks of rubber, each of width w :;: lOOmmarebondedto rigid supportsandthe
movableplat~AB. The thicknessesof the top anQbottom blocks are 25 mm an~40 tnm,
respectively,but the modulusof rigidity is the same,7.5 MPa. A horizontalcentricforce
P = 26 kN is appliedto the plateAB.
(a) Detenninethe horizontaldisplace~t 5 of the plateAB.
(b) Determinethe averageshearstressandshearstrainin

 Problem 3. (25%)
A rigidly-supported, unreinforced concretepier of width w and
depth d must carry the concentratedload F somewherealong the
line ACB.
(a) At what maximuin distances, from the centerC of ~e pier, can
the load F be placed so that only compressivestressesact on the -
plane P near the baseof the pier. Expresss as a function of w, the
width of the pier. (Hint: The answer does not depend on the
magnitudeof F.) .

(b) For the particular caseof s = 0.10 m,determine the-normal

stressacting at"point E' on the plane P, near the base of the pier.
Use: w = 1 m. d=O.3 m. andF= 1000 leN.
