An elevated jogging track is supported at intervals by a wood beam AB (L = 7.5 ft) that is pinned at A and supported by steel rod BC and a steel washer at B. Both the rod (dBC= 3/16 in.) and the washer (dB= 1.0 in.) were designed using a rod tension force of TBC=415 lb. The rod was sized using a factor of safely of 3 against reaching the ultimate stress tru— 60 ksi. An allowable bearing stress sba= 565 psi was used to size the washer at B.
