Question: Question 4 : The truss structure is loaded at joint C with a vertical lond N and horizontal load of 0 . 4 N .

Question 4: The truss structure is loaded at joint C with a vertical lond N and horizontal load of 0.4 N . In addition, the truss members are made of steel with an allowable yield strength of 250 MPa and elastic maslulus of E=200GPa. Determine the maximum value of N for the loading conditions given. Use a factor of safety against buekling of 2.5 and consider buckling in the plane of the stricture only.
(Remember that Ix=Iy=r44 for a circular area)
