The structure shown below is made of 3 circular rods, each with a diameter of 1.0" and lengths as shown in the diagram. Rod AB is aluminum (E = 10E6 psi) and rod BC is steel (E = 30E6 psi) and rod CD is brass (E = 15E6 psi). The structure is axially loaded as shown in the diagram.

Question
The structure shown below is made of 3 circular rods, each with a diameter of 1.0" and lengths as shown in
the diagram. Rod AB is aluminum (E = 10E6 psi) and rod BC is steel (E = 30E6 psi) and rod CD is brass (E =
15E6 psi). The structure is axially loaded as shown in the diagram. Determine the maximum stress and
its location and the change in length of the structure due to the applied loads. You may ignore the
flanges that connect the rods (considered rigid).
