Can anyone tell me what material allowable to use when sizing a shear key. We need to check bearing on shaft and sprocket, bearing on key, and shear on key. Do we use Fsu/2? Fbry, a percentage of Ftu? No reference I have is real clear on this. The key length must be sized not to extend out of...
I am doing an experiment on how much force it would take to flatten a ball of dough into a specific diameter tortilla. Maybe I can relate ounces of mixed dough to diameter tortilla? The dough will be mixed to a certain consistency then rolled into a ball weighing a certain amount of ounces and...
I need to run an electrical system for a small machine. I will be running off of 110 mainly but there is an option for the customer to use 220 if they choose. Half of the power will be used to run a motor and half will be used to heat and element that will be approx 400-500 degrees. I have sized...

monel example:
the statement should of said, the material bearing allowable will be higher than the fast'r shear allowable of the fast'r, making the joint shear critical. Cres 301 mechanical properties are higher.
For fasteners not found in MIL-HDBK-5, similarities can be drawn and...
Sorry, Yes it is the joint allowable you find in mil handbk. When finding joint allowables of the fast'r use the less of the bearing allowable and shearout allowable.
Fsu of the material will not very with short edge margin. What varies or gets smaller is your area around the hole making your...
Thank you Desertfox, I think that will get me going. Any good reference website/reading material on designing mechanisms (drive design, gears, cranks, chains, sprockets)that you can tell me? thanks
Check capability of a short ed hole (sed)! We usually calculate what the fast'r is good for in the apparent material your analyzing (ref. Fsu of fast'r in mil handbook, thickness and material type of the metal the sed hole is in, whether the fast'r is csk or not csk, the size of the fast'r)...
I am a structures guy and need help sizing an electric motor for a project I am working on. Things I know: torque required, 110 volts (standard) and 220 (optional), direction is ccw or cw, it will drive a chain or belt, and it will run for 1-6 hrs a day. Do not know: HZ, Amps or anything about...
