Question

Members AB and CD are 30-mm-diameter steel rods, and members BC and AD are 22-mm-diameter steel rods. When the turnbuckle is tightened, the diagonal member AC is put in tension. Knowing that $E = 200 \, \text{GPa}$ and $h = 1.2 \, \text{m}$, determine the largest allowable tension in AC so that the deformations in members AB and CD do not exceed 1 mm.

Step 1

$d_{AB} = d_{CD} = 30 \, \text{mm} = 0.03 \, \text{m}$ $A_{AB} = A_{CD} = \frac{\pi}{4} d_{AB}^2 = \frac{\pi}{4} (0.03)^2 = 7.0686 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{m}^2$ Let $A_{BC}$ and $A_{AD}$ be the cross-sectional areas of members BC and AD, respectively. $d_{BC} = Show more…
