The rigid bar ABC is pinned at B and attached to the two vertical rods. Initially, the bar is horizontal and the vertical rods are stress-free. Determine the stress in the aluminum rod if the temperature of the steel rod is decreased by 40°C. Neglect the weight of bar ABC. Steel L=0.9 m A = 300 mm² Aluminum L = 1.2 m A = 1200 mm² E = 70 x 10° N/m² a = 23 μm/(m-°C) E = 200 x 10 N/m² a = 11.7 μm/(m-°C) B 0.6 m 1.2 m
