The symmetrical shelf is subjected to uniform pressure P. Support is provided by a bolt (or pin) located at each end A and A' and by the symmetrical brace arms, which bear against the smooth wall on both sides at B and B'. Determine the force resisted by each bolt at the wall and the normal force at B for equilibrium.

Units Used:

kPa = 103 Pa

Given:

P = 4 kPa

a = 0.15 m

b = 0.2 m

c = 1.5 m
