Rigid beam AB is subjected to a distributed load that increases linearly from zero to a maximum intensity of wB = 24.5 kN/m. Beam AB is supported by a single-shear pin connection at joint A and by a double-shear connection to member (1) at joint B. Member (1) is connected to the support at C with a double-shear pin connection. Use dimensions of a = 2.3 m, b 0.9 m, and c = 1 m. (a) The yield strength of member (1) is 309 MPa. A factor of safety of 1.7 with respect to the yield strength is required for the normal stress of member (1). Determine the minimum cross-sectional area required for member (1).
