Please refer to the figure shown below. If P is equal to 6,720 lb., and if all the rods have a cross-sectional area to be 0.4 sq. in. Explain why the set-up will fail or will not fail if the allowable stresses in Steel is 120MP%; 90MPa in Alumimun; and 100Mpa in Bronze. As the civil engineer of the project, if the set-up fails, provide a recommendation to prevent the failure to occur. Show your solutions to support your recommendation. 4P Steel Bronze Aluminum | P 2 t 3 ft 2.5 ft
