Question

The columns labelled S are made of steel (E = 200 GPa, \alphaα = 12 x 10-6 /\circ∘C) and have a cross-sectional area of 1665 mm2

The column labelled A is made of aluminum (E = 73 GPa, \alphaα = 23 x 10-6 /\circ∘C) and has a cross-sectional area of 1278 mm2

The length of the columns is 238 mm

If a load of 1066 kN is applied as shown and the temperature is increased by 60\circ∘ C, determine the stress in the aluminum.

Expert Solution
Step 1

For the equilibrium of the system, the tension in steel is equal to compression in aluminum.

steel area(As)=2x1665=3330 mm2 (2 steel members are there)

                                                           σsAs=σAAAσs=AAAsσAσs=33301278σAσs=0.384σA    eq.1
