**Problem Statement:**

Bar A-B-C is made from a fully bonded composite of two materials as shown in the cross section below. Find the Z displacement at point C.

**Description of the Diagram:**

1. **Bar Configuration:**
   - The bar is composed of points A, B, and C.
   - It is subject to two forces:
     - \(20 \, \text{kN}\) acting leftward between points A and B.
     - \(50 \, \text{kN}\) acting rightward at point C.
   - Distances:
     - \(AB = 1.10 \, \text{m}\)
     - \(BC = 1.25 \, \text{m}\)

2. **Cross Section c-c:**
   - The cross section is a composite made of two materials.
   - Layers: 
     - Top layer: \(5 \, \text{mm}\), material 1
     - Middle layer: \(5 \, \text{mm}\), material 2
     - Bottom layer: \(5 \, \text{mm}\), material 1
   - Total thickness: \(25 \, \text{mm}\)

3. **Material Properties:**
   - Material 1:
     - Young's Modulus, \(E = 240 \, \text{GPa}\)
   - Material 2:
     - Young's Modulus, \(E = 180 \, \text{GPa}\)

**Goal:**
Calculate the Z displacement (\(u_z\)) at point C.

\[
u_z = \underline{\ \qquad \ } \text{ mm (at C)}
\]
