Question:

The rigid beam is supported by the three suspender bars. Bars AB and EF are made of aluminum and bar CD is made of steel. If each bar has a cross-sectional area of 450 mm2, determine the maximum value of P if the allowable stress is (σallow)st= 200 MPa for the steel and (σallow)al= 150 MPa for the aluminum. Est= 200 GPa, Eal= 70 GPa.
