Question: Problem # 2 : ( 5 0 points ) A simple frame is subjected to a horizontal force of 7 5 0 lb and a

Problem #2: (50 points) A simple frame is subjected to a horizontal force of 750 lb and a uniform
vertical distributed load of 50lbin., as shown in Figure 2. The frame consists of two members: a
straight link BDE supported at pin E; and a (non-straight) member ABC supported at pin A. The
two members are pinned together at B. The cross-sectional area of member ABC (perpendicular to
its longitudinal axes from points A to B and from points B to C) is ABC=1.50in2. Pin E is in double
shear and its diameter is dE=0.80in.
For parts a) through d), imagine that the 50lbin. distributed load on member ABC is
removed: (35 points)
a) Draw a free body diagram of the entire frame, find the reactions at pins A and E, and find
the force transmitted between points A and B in member ABC. Specify whether this force is
tensile or compressive.
b) Find the shear stress E in pin E.
c) Find the normal stress and the shear stress on a plane exposed by a cut through member
ABC between points A and B when the cut is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis from
point A to point B.
d) Find the normal stress ohor and the shear stress hor on a plane exposed by a horizontal cut
through member ABC between points A and B.
For part e), the loads on the frame are applied as shown in Figure 2: (15 points)
e) Draw the appropriate free body diagram(s) and find the reactions at pins A and E
