Question
A frame structure carries a sign, as shown in the figure below. The sign ismade of steel (with mass density of 8000 kg/m3) and of uniform thickness. What is the maximum thickness t_max of the sign such that the allowable shear forceand bending moment within the frame structure are not exceeded: Vallow= 8 kN and Mallow= 12 kN·m. Assume the frame members are weightless. There are pins at points A ,B, andC. The sign weight is transferred through cables CE and DF.
