Question
The same member is now loaded in axial tension. Enough force is applied to bring the member to its yield point. At the exact point where the member starts to yield, calculate how much longer the member is.
Give your answer in mm to two decimal places. Do NOT include any units.
Transcribed Image Text:The figure below shows the rectangular cross-section, of dimensions b=145 mm and
t=19 mm, of a steel member of length 4m. The member has pin end supports and
experiences axial compressive loading.
Assume Young's modulus E = 200,000 MPa and the yield strength oy =240 MPa.
