Rigid bar ABCD is loaded and supported as shown. Steel [E = 28400 ksi] bars (1) and (2) are unstressed before the load P is applied. Bar (1) has a cross-sectional area of 0.82 in.2 and bar (2) has a cross-sectional area of 0.41 in.2. After load P is applied, the strain in bar (1) is found to be 700 με.. Assume L₁=69 in., L2=89 in., a=34 in., b=33 in., and c=37 in. Determine: (a) the stresses in bars (1) and (2). (b) the vertical deflection vp of point D on the rigid bar. (c) the load P. Answers: (a) o ₁ (b) VD = (c) P = i i i L a (1) B L2 b ksi, 0₂ = in. kips. (2) C C M. i D P ksi.
