Question: P 5 . 3 6 The pin - connected structure shown in Figure P 5 . 3 5 / 3 6 consists of a rigid

P5.36 The pin-connected structure shown in Figure P5.35/36 consists of a rigid beam ABCD and two supporting bars. ?Bar(1) is a bronze alloy [E=105GPa with a cross-sectional area of A1=290mm2. Bar (2) is an aluminum alloy [E=70GPa ] with a cross-sectional area of A2=650mm2. All bars are unstressed before the load P is applied; however, there is a 3-mm clearance in the pin connection at A. If a load of P=85kN is applied at B, determine:
(a) the normal stresses in both bars (1) and (2).
(b) the downward deflection of point A on the rigid bar.
Ans: 16.97MPa,83.2MPa,3.36mm
