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

question 14

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) $1.0 \mathrm{MPa}$
(B) $1.5 \mathrm{MPa}$
(C) $1.7 \mathrm{MPa}$
(D) $1.9 \mathrm{MPa}$
