Question
Rigid bar ABCD is loaded and supported as shown. Steel [E = 29900 ksi] bars (1) and (2) are unstressed before the load P is applied. Bar (1) has a cross-sectional area of 0.81 in.2 and bar (2) has a cross-sectional area of 0.46 in.2. After load P is applied, the strain in bar (1) is found to be 770 με. Assume L1=55 in., L2=78 in., a=31 in., b=31 in., and c=36 in. Determine:
(a) the stresses in bars (1) and (2).
(b) the vertical deflection vD of point D on the rigid bar.
(c) the load P.
