The boom AC in the figure rests in a ball and socket joint at A and is held in equilibrium by the cables BE and CD. The load applied at C. Determine the coordinates of D in the YZ plane so that the force in CD will be a minimum. Neglect the weight of the boom and cables. Answers: y = 16 ft; z = -34.7 ft Note: The reaction at ball and socket joint is always represented by the x, y and z components.

Axial Load

When a bar of the uniform cross-section is acted by a load, such that the load acts along the longitudinal axis of the bar, such kinds of loadings are known as axial loadings. In general terms, a load is an external force acting on a component. An axial load acts perpendicular to the geometric cross-section of the component. Based on the direction of the application of the load, an axial load can be tensile or compressive. The analysis of bodies under the action of axial loads is generally studied under the branch of mechanics, known as statics.
