18 CHAPTER1 Tension, Compression, and Shear Problem 1.3-5 A symmetrical framework consisting of three pin-connected bars is loaded by a force P (see figure). The angle between the inelined bars and the horizontal is a = 48°. The axial strain inthe middle bar is measured as 00713. Determine the tensile stress in the outer bats if they are constructed of aluminum alloy having the stress-strain diagram shown in Fig. 1-13. (Express the stress in USCS units.)
