3. A 14m long steel cable with nominal diameter 19.5mm is used to lift a bridge section weighing 38 kN as shown. How much will it stretch when the load is picked up? If the cable is rated for a max load of 70 kN, what is the factor of safety with respect to fallure of the cable? The effective modulus of elasticity is E = 140 GPa. Take the ultimate load as 406 kN. (ANS: 12.5 mm, 5.8) 4447
