Question
A rigid bar ABCD is pinned at end
A and supported by two cables at
points B and C (see figure). The
cable at B has nominal diameter
dB =25 mm and the cable at C has
nominal diameter dC = 30 mm. A
load P acts at end D of the bar.
What is the allowable load P if the
temperature rises by 90°C and
each cable is required to have a
factor of safety of at least 5
against its ultimate load?
(Note: The cables have effective modulus of elasticity E = 150
GPa and coefficient of thermal expansion = 12 x 10–6/°C. Other properties of the
cables can be found in Table 2-1)
