- Problem 2 The rigid bar is plnned at A and held by two flexible bars at E and C. The load P Is applled at B. The two flexible bars FE and DC each have a diameter of 1 In. The flexible bars are elastic- perfectly plastic with a yleld stress equal to 20 ksl and a yleld strain of 0.001. Determine the following: The load R, at first yleld and the corresponding deflection at B, &, The ultimate load Pu and the corresponding deflection du The permanent deflection and residual stresses in each rod if the ultimate load is removed Construct P - A curve showing yield, ultimate and permanent deformation o (ksi) 1 ft E F 1 ft1 ft 20 B P e (in./in.) 0.001 1 ft D 2 ft 1 ft Aarrow_forwardTEXT:A planar construction is composed of two beam elements and two axial rods.
