Engineering Plate Strength Analysis

The document provides instructions to calculate the strength of a 12mm thick plate with multiple 21.5mm diameter holes arranged in chained and staggered lines. Formulas are given for calculating the net width of the plate for chained and staggered hole patterns by subtracting the total hole diameter from the gross width and adding/subtracting hole spacings. Instructions are also given to calculate the safe load of the plate using a safe stress of 140N/mm2 instead of the given 150N/mm2.

WORKING EXAMPLE

Find the strength of the 12 mm thick plate shown in Fig. 9.2. All
the holes are 21.5 mm as gross diameter. Take ft=150 N/mm2

FORMULAS:

Net width/breadth for chained line = b- nd


𝑝2
Net width/breadth for staggered line = b – nd+nz +
4𝑔

n: number of holes in the line

nz /m= number of zigzag or inclined lines.


Q2.

N.B: USE t= 16mm

Calculate also the safe load if the safe stress is 140N/mm2
