Using a FBD of the beam, assuming members in tension, relate the force in the members and the applied force P by summing moments about the pin at A. Assume counterclockwise is positive in writing the equation.
Rigid bar ABCD is supported by a pin connection at A and by two axial bars (1) and (2). Bar (1) is a 30-in.-long bronze [E = 15700 ksi, α=α= 9.5 × 10−6/°F] bar with a cross-sectional area of 1.50 in.2. Bar (2) is a 40-in.-long aluminum alloy [E = 8000 ksi, α=α= 11.9 × 10−6/°F] bar with a cross-sectional area of 2.50 in.2. Both bars are unstressed before the load P is applied. Assume L1=30 in., L2=40 in., a=36 in., b=44 in., and c=14 in. If a concentrated load of P = 31 kips is applied to the rigid bar at D and the temperature is decreased by 80°F.
(A) Using a FBD of the beam, assuming members in tension, relate the force in the members and the applied force P by summing moments about the pin at A. Assume counterclockwise is positive in writing the equation.
