Side

$P=1000lb$

The wood block shown is fastened at $AD$ to the side of a column, it is subject to a uniformly distributed load of $q$ in $x-$axis and point load $P$ in y$-$axis. Left picture is the view from it's side and right picture is the view from it's front.

i$)$ Find the horizantal elongation of the block.

ii$)$ Find the downward displacement of $B{B}^{**}C{C}^{**}$

Hint: $P$ is exactly at the middle of $B{B}^{**}C{C}^{**}$

Example is similar to one in previous lectures.

Front

$E=1\mathrm{.}6**{10}^3$ksi

$G=0\mathrm{.}2**{10}^3$ksi

$=0\mathrm{.}2$

Solution:
