Hello,
I need to find the material properties for a forging that was made to the ASTM A237 standard. I can't find a copy of it anywhere. Does anyone have a copy I could see?
Thank you.
Hello,
I need to lay a temporary crane rail down in an asphalt parking lot and plan to distribute the load using plate. I am trying to determine the usable plate width and needed thickness. I need to keep the stress into the asphalt below 3000 psf.
Anyone know of a good reference for this...
So this is an odd issue, one that only the Gov't could create.
I landed new #12 wire on a terminal block using ring terminals. The terminal blocks were existing equipment and had #6 studs. The ring terminals I used are for 10-12 GA wire and have a #8 hole.

Hello,
I'm trying to work out the acceleration of a drum as a load is dropped and need to account for mass moment of inertia.
I've attached a free body diagram of the system.
The load is instantaneously dropped causing the drum to un-spool wire rope as the load falls to the ground.
Assume...
Hello,
I am currently working on a project a little outside my comfort zone and would like some assistance in recognizing forces and stress in a particular area of a Brake Disc design.
The brake disc gets mounted to a drum which is already installed and the disc must be made into 2-pieces to...
