Scott, R G; Stone, J C

Textbooks on machine design and other relevant handbooks have not approached in depth the problem of estimating the effects of major design variables on the critical stresses in eye-bar lugs used for heavy lifting. The critical stresses determined experimentally by the photoelastic modeling of design variations of geometry and pin clearance with and without a bushing between the pin and the lug are discussed. Experimental data are compared to values developed from theoretical analysis.
