DESIGN PROJECT - COTTER JOINT

Q No. 1 Design a cotter joint which resist a tensile load of 250KN. The material of rod and cotter is

same and has a yield tensile strength of 240MPa. The compressive strength may be assumed

twice of the tensile strength. Whereas the shear strength may be consider as 0.5 times the

tensile strength. Assume factor of safety = 4.
