A tension member in a roof truss is composed of two ASTM A36 structural steel angles that together have a net cross-sectional area of 8.62 in2.
a. Compute the allowable total load if the allowable tensile stress is 22,000 psi.
b. If the total tensile load in the member is 150,000 lb, compute the actual tensile stress.

- Calculate Strain energy for truss CE. Enter your answer in J to 2 decimal places.arrow_forward1. You are to design an axially loaded member that is to carry a load of 5,000 lb. The member is to be made of ASTM A36 steel and have a total length of 24 in. Due to the design requirements the maximum allowable elongation of this member under the stated load is 0.025 in. Find the smallest allowable diameter of the member. a. Given: PL where ô is member elongation, P is axial load, L is initial member length, E is the material's Modulus of Elasticity, EA and A is the member's cross section area E136 = 29*10° psi (Beer, 746)arrow_forward2. A steel strut, 40 mm diameter, is turned down to 20 mm diameter for one-half its length. Calculate the ratio of the extensions in the two parts due to axial loading.arrow_forward
