What is the shear deformation? δ = mm

What is the seismic force? P = N

must be:

4.91[6-8]mm

3312.82[8-9]N

Given:
A seismic force, P, caused the bridge truss to shift to the right thereby causing the base isolation to deform
as shown. The base isolation has a thickness, t, and a top view cross section which is a square with width,
W.
t =
W =
shear
strain, y =
shear
modulus,
G =
110mm
275mm
0.0447
8
0.98MPa
W
