A cross beam in a highway bridge experiences a stress of 14 ksi due to the dead weight of the bridge structure. When a fully loaded tractor-trailer crosses over the bridge, however, the stress in the beam increases to 45 ksi. The beam is fabricated from steel with an ultimate tensile strength of 76 ksi, a yield strength of 50 ksi, and an endurance limit of 38 ksi. Find the safety factor for an infinite fatigue life:

(a) if the effect of mean stress on fatigue strength is ignored

(b) when the effect of mean stress on fatigue strength is considered.
