A large precast concrete panel for a warehouse is raised using two sets of cables at two lift lines, as shown in the figure part a. Cable 1 has a length L1 = 22 Ft, cable 2 has a length L2= 10 ft, and the distance along the panel between lift points Band D is d = 14 ft (see figure part b). The total weight of the panel is W = 85 kips.

A suspender on a suspension bridge consist of a cable that passes over the main cable (see figure) and supports the bridge deck, which is Far below. The suspender is held in position by a metal tie that is prevented from sliding downward by clamps around the suspender cable. Let P represent the load in each part of the suspender cable, and let represent the angle of the suspender cable just above the tie. represent the allowable tensile stress in the metal tie. (a) Obtain a formula for the minimum required cross-sectional area of the lie. (b) Calculate the minimum area if P = 130 kN, = 75°, and allow=80 .
Two bars AC and BC of the same material support a vertical load P (see figure). The length L of the horizontal bar is fixed, but the angle fl can be varied by moving support A vertically and changing the length of bar AC to correspond with the new position of support A. The allowable stresses in the bars are the same in tension and compression. When the angle ft is reduced, bar AC becomes shorter, but the cross-sectional areas of both bars increase because the axial forces are larger. The opposite effects occur if the angle 0 is increased. Thus, the weight of the structure (which is proportional to the volume) depends upon the angle ft. Determine the angle ft so that the structure has minimum weight without exceeding the allowable stresses in the bars. Note: The weights of the bars are very small compared to the force P and may be disregarded.

A square wood platform is 8 ft × 8 ft in area and rests on masonry walls (see figure). The deck of the platform is constructed of 2-in. nominal thickness tongue-and-groove planks (actual thickness 1.5 in.; sec Appendix CL) supported on two S-ft long beams. The beams have 4 in. × (i in. nominal dimensions (actual dimensions 3.5 in. × 5.5 in.). The planks arc designed to support a uniformly distributed load n ( lb/ft" i acting over the entire top surface of the platform. I be allowable bending stress for the planks is 2400 psi and the allowable shear stress is 100 psi. W ben analyzing the planks, disregard their weights and assume that their reactions are uniformly distributed over the top surfaces of the supporting beams.

(c) Which of the preceding values becomes the allowable load alolow on the platform? Hints: Use care in constructing the loading diagram for the planks, noting especially that the reactions are distributed loads instead of concentrated loads. Also, note that the maximum shear forces occur at the inside faces of the supporting beams.
