Assignment #2 (Finals)
Problem 1:
The force P = 250 kN is applied to the bracket as shown in the figure. Compute the normal stresses developed at
points A and B.
Problem 2:
Member BD of the pin-connected frame has a rectangular cross section 200 mm wide by 500 mm deep. Determine
the maximum normal stress in this member.
Problem 3:
Determine the largest value of the force P that can be applied to the wood beam without exceeding the allowable
normal stress of 20 MPa.
