The rigid bar AB of negligible weight is supported by a pin at O.

 When the two steel rods

attached to the ends of the bar, there is a gap equal to 4 mm between the lower end of the left rod
and its pin support at C. Compute the stress in the left rod after its lower end is attached to the
support. The cross-sectional areas are 300 mm2 for rod AC and 250 mm2 for rod BD. Use E =
200 GPa for steel. Express your final answer in MPa and use two decimal places.

The rigid block of mass M is supported by the three symmetrically placed rods. The ends of the
rods are were level before the block was attached. Determine the largest allowable value of M if
the properties of the rods are as listed (the last column is the working stress). Express your final
answer in kg and use two decimal places.

The figure shows the cross section of a circular steel tube that is filled with concrete with a rigid
cap. Calculate the stress in the concrete caused by the 200 kip axial load. Use Es = 29 x 106 psi
and Ec = 3.5 x 106 psi. Express your final answer in psi and use two decimal places.

The composite bar is firmly attached to unyielding supports. Compute the stress in steel caused
by the application of the axial load P =40 kips. Express your final answer in ksi and use two
decimal places.
