A pin-connected truss composed of members AB and BC is subjected to a vertical force P = 40 kN at joint B (see figure). Each member is of constant cross-sectional area: AAB = 0.004 m2 and 2 ABC = 0.002 m2. The diameter d of all pins is 20 mm, clevis thickness t is 10 mm, and the thickness t1 of the bracket is 15 mm. Determine the normal stress acting in each member and the shearing and bearing stresses at joint C. FCClevisedends2 mAB1.5 mP=40 kN

A pin-connected truss composed of members AB and BC is subjected to a vertical force P = 40 kN at joint B (see figure). Each member is of constant cross-sectional area: A_AB = 0.004 m² and 2 A_BC = 0.002 m². The diameter d of all pins is 20 mm, clevis thickness t is 10 mm, and the thickness t₁ of the bracket is 15 mm. Determine the normal stress acting in each member and the shearing and bearing stresses at joint C.
