For the simple truss shown in the diagram, where the applied vertical downward load  PP  = 514 N, calculate the load in member AB (in N). Indicate a tensile load as +ve and a compressive load as -ve. Take  aa  = 2.7 metres.
A column is made of two Channel sections as shown. They are latticed together by light diagonal bracing. The bracing prevents them from moving independently of each other however it does not itself add to the inertia properties. The column is 480" long and is Ball and Socket supported on each end. The column is A36 steel with E = 29,000 ksi. Determine the largest axial compressive load that can be supported with a safety factor of 2.
34 - A support is a fixed, B support is a sliding joint. loads M= 30 kNm, P1= 12 kN, P2= 13 kN, q1= 6 kN ⁄ m, q2= 7 kN ⁄ m , spans are a= 2 m, b= 3 m. The support reactions in the beam whose loading condition is given in the figure will be found. Accordingly, Ax = ?A) 22.25B) 0C) None.D) 39.25E) 21/2
