Question

Three steel rods (E = 200 GPa) supports a 50 kN
load P. Each of the rods AB and CD has a 300 mm2
cross-sectional area and rod EF has a 600 mm2
cross-sectional area.
(a) State whether the structure is
statically determinate or indeterminate.
Why?
(b)Determine the force and the
stress in each rod.
(c)  Determine the deformation of each rod.
Note: The link BED is rigid, and BE = ED.
