Problem 214
The rigid bars AB and CD shown in Fig. P-214 are supported by pins at A
and C and the two rods. Determine the maximum force P that can be
applied as shown if its vertical movement is limited to 5 mm. Neglect the
weights of all members.

Member AB:
ΣMA=0Σ��=0
3Pal=6Pst3���=6���
Pal=2Pst���=2���
By ratio and proportion:
δB6=δal3��6=���3
δB=2δal=2[PLAE]al��=2���=2[����]��
δB=2[Pal(2000)500(70000)]��=2[���(2000)500(70000)]
δB=18750Pal=18750(2Pst)��=18750���=18750(2���)
δB=14375Pst��=14375��� → movement of B
Member CD:
Movement of D:

A certain cross-section of shaft of 120mm diameter there a bending moment of 8 KN m and a twisting
moment of 12KNm.
i) Find max direct stress induced in the section if the passion's ratio of 0.25
ii) Find what stress acting alone can produce the same max strain.
A rod 150 cm long and of diameter 2 cm is subjected to an axial pull of 20 kN. If
the modulus of elasticity of the material of the rod is 2x105 N/mm2; determine: (i) the
stress; (ii) the strain and (iii) the elongation of the rod.
