2.4 An 18-m-long steel wire of 5-mm diameter is to be used in the manufacture of a prestressed concrete beam. It is observed that the wire stretches 45 mm when a tensile force P is applied. Know- ing that E = 200 GPa, determine (a) the magnitude of the force P, (b) the corresponding normal stress in the wire.

2.13 A steel plate, which is 1.5 m by 1.5 m and 30 mm thick, is lifted by four cables attached to its corners that meet at a point that is 2 m above the plate. Determine the required cross-sectional area of the cables if the stress in them is not to exceed 20 MPa. Steel plate Prob. 2.13 Cables
1.6 (A). An 1-seetion girder is constructed from two 80 mm x 12 mm flanges joined by an 80 mm x 12 mm web. Four such girders are mounted vertically one at each corner of a horizontal platform which the girders support. The platform is 4 m above ground level and weighs 10 kN. Assuming that each girder supports an equal share of the load, determine the maximum compressive stress set up in the material of each girder when the platform supports an additional load of 15 kN. The weight of the girders may not be neglected. The density of the cast iron from which the girders are constructed is 7470 kg/m³. [2.46 MN/m²]
