Question: The material for the bolt shown in the angled joint has an ultimate tensile stress of 600MPa and a shear strength of 250MPa. The diameter of the bolt is 10mm. Determine the factor of safety. Assume F=9KN.
Stress = Applied Force/ cross-sectional area
Factor of safety = ultimate tensile strength / actual tensile stress
