A load of P = 93 kN is supported by a structure consisting of rigid bar ABC, two identical solid bronze (E = 103 GPa) rods, and a solid steel (E = 238 GPa) rod, as shown. The bronze rods (1) each have a diameter of 15 mm and they are symmetrically positioned relative to the center rod (2) and the applied load P. Steel rod (2) has a diameter of 28 mm. All bars are unstressed before the load P is applied; however, there is a 2.3-mm clearance in the bolted connection at B. Assume L1 = 2.9 m and L2 = 1.3 m. Determine the downward deflection ν of rigid bar ABC. Express your answer in mm rounded to the nearest hundredths.
