Classroom Activity

During class, we will continue the example, please bring your work so far with you as we will not be repeating the above steps during class. The in$-$class work will require determining the tension stress at the net area, the shear on the Pin of $B$ and the elongation of Rod $BC$ and Boom AB$.$

APPENDIX

The force in Rod $BC$ and Boom $AB$ can be determined by analyzing Point B for Particle Equilibrium.

Sum of forces in $x$ direction $=0$ and sum of forces in $y$ direction $=0.$
