Question: A symmetrical framework consisting of three pin-connected bars is loaded by a force P (see figure). The angle between the inclined bars and the horizontal

A symmetrical framework consisting of three pin-connected bars is loaded by a force P (see figure). The angle between the inclined bars and the horizontal is α = 48°. The axial strain in the middle bar is measured as 0.0713.
Determine the tensile stress in the outer bars if they are constructed of aluminum alloy having the stress-strain diagram shown in Fig. 1-13. (Express the stress in USCS units.)
