Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the factor of safety for a structure if the ultimate load is 100 kN and the allowable load is 50 kN?
  • Step 1: Identify the ultimate load, which is given as 100 kN.
  • Step 2: Identify the allowable load, which is given as 50 kN.
  • Step 3: Use the formula for factor of safety (FS), which is FS = Ultimate Load / Allowable Load.
  • Step 4: Substitute the values into the formula: FS = 100 kN / 50 kN.
  • Step 5: Perform the division: 100 kN divided by 50 kN equals 2.0.
  • Step 6: Conclude that the factor of safety for the structure is 2.0.
