Transcribed Image Text:A tapered steel member of length, / (feet) is subjected to external loading of 25 kips as
shown in the Figure. Solve for nodal displacements if the tapered member is approximated
using 3 one-dimensional elements.
Assume / = last digit of your student ID. If the ID ends with a zero value, use /= 3 feet.
