Fundamental Deformable Bodies
A steel bar AD has a cross-sectional area of 260 mm² and is loaded
by forces P, = 12 kN, P, = 8 kN, and P3 = 6 kN. The lengths of the
segments of the bar are a = 1.5 m, b = 0.6 m, and c = 0.9 m.
(b) By what amount P should the load P, be increased so that end
D of the bar does not move when the loads are applied?
