A tension member must be designed for a service dead load of 18 kips and a service live load of 2 kips. Required:
a. If load and resistance factor design is used, determine the maximum factored load (required strength) and the controlling AISC load combination.
b. If allowable strength design is used, determine the maximum load (required strength) and the controlling AISC load combination.

Asingle-geared blanking press has a stroke of 200 mm and a rated capacity of 320 kn. a cam driven ram is assumed to be capable of delivering the full press load at constant force during the last 15 percent of a constant-velocity stroke. the camshaft has an average speed of 90 rev/min and is geared to the flywheel shaft at a 6: 1 ratio. the total work done is to include an allowance of 16 percent for friction a) estimate the maximum energy fluctuation b) find the rim weight for an effective diameter of 1.2 m and a coefficient of speed fluctuation of 0.10
