Question: Link A B and link DC have a cross sectional area of A m m 2 and are made of material i with elantic modulus

Link AB and link DC have a cross sectional area of Amm2 and are made of material i with elantic modulus E, and material 2 with elastic modulus Eg, respectively. Knowing that they support the rigid member BC, determine the deflection at point E when a vertical force F is applied as shown in the figure below. All the parameters are given in the table below and are based on your Banner ID number.
Hint: the problem is statically indeterminate, so you need to use a compatibility equation.
A=100[mm2]
F=5[kN]
E1=220[GPa]
E2=110[GPa]
L1=700[mm]
L2=350,[mm]
L3=700[mm]
Link A B and link DC have a cross sectional area
