Question
### Problem Statement:
A rigid beam is supported by bar DE. If the vertical displacement of point D is to be less than 0.1 in., what is the minimum cross-sectional area of bar DE? Assuming that area \(A\), what is the stress state at point \(p\) in the coordinate system shown?

### Diagram Details:
- The diagram shows a beam \(ABC\) supported by a bar \(DE\).
- The beam has two loads of \(800 \, \text{lb}\) acting downward at points \(B\) and \(C\).
- Dimensions of the beam:
  - Length \(AB = 5 \, \text{ft}\)
  - Length \(BC = 5 \, \text{ft}\)
  - Point \(A\) is positioned \((0, 0, 5 \, \text{ft})\)
  - Point \(E\) vertically aligned with \(D\), making line DE perpendicular to AC

### Details of Bar \(DE\):
- Modulus of Elasticity \(E = 30000 \, \text{ksi}\)
- Poisson's Ratio \(\nu = 0.29\)
- Distance from \(D\) to \(E\) along the axis: \(12 \, \text{ft}\)

### Calculation Requirements:
- Minimum cross-sectional area \(A\) in \(\text{in}^2\)
- Stress at point \(p\) in the beam

### Additional Information:
#### Balance Laws:
- There is a note referring to balance laws with calculations involving the sums of forces and moments, using the formula:
  \[
  T = \left(\frac{16A}{L^2}\right) = (800)(5) + (800)(5)
  \]

### Calculated Forms:
- Stress \(\sigma\) at \(p\) must be computed.
- Cross-sectional area \(A\) in \(\text{in}^2\)

The calculations must ensure that the displacement constraint at point \(D\) is satisfied with the given parameters and applied loads.
