An Elastomeric Bearing Pad Is Subjected to a Shear Force 1.0MPa 1.0 \mathrm{MPa}

Question 6

Short Answer

An elastomeric bearing pad is subjected to a shear force V during a static loading test. The pad has dimensions a = 150 mm and b = 225 mm,
And thickness t = 55 mm. The lateral displacement of the top plate with
Respect to the bottom plate is 14 mm under a load P =16 kN. The shear
Modulus of elasticity G of the elastomer is approximately: (A) 1.0MPa 1.0 \mathrm{MPa}
(B) 1.5MPa 1.5 \mathrm{MPa}
(C) 1.7MPa 1.7 \mathrm{MPa}
(D) 1.9MPa 1.9 \mathrm{MPa}
