A tire carries a 5000-lb load and has a pressure of 100 psi


A tire carries a 5,000-lb load and has a pressure of 100 psi. The pavement has a modulus of elasticity of 43,500 psi. A deflection of 0.016 inches is observed at a point on the pavement surface 0.8 inches away from the tire load. Using the single layer elastic equations, what is the radial-horizontal stress at this point?
