Concept explainers

Beams

In structural engineering, a beam is a component made of a variety of materials (including steel alloys, and wood) that can resist loads applied laterally to the beam axis. Members, elements, rafters, shafts, and purlins are all terms used to describe beams.

7 The pin-connected structure consists of a rigid beam ABCD and two supporting bars. Bar (1) is an aluminum alloy [E = 61 GPa] with a cross-sectional area of A₁ = 810 mm². Bar (2) is a bronze alloy [E = 103 GPa] with a cross-sectional area of A₂ = 470 mm². Assume L₁=2.4 m, L₂=3.1 m, a=0.7 m, b=1.9 m, and c=1.1 m. All bars are unstressed before the load P is applied; however, there is a 5.8-mm clearance in the pin connection at A. If a load of P = 44 kN is applied at B, determine: (a) the normal stresses 0₁, 0₂, in both bars (1) and (2). (b) the normal strains E1, E2, in bars (1) and (2).
