Rigid bar ABCD is supported by a pin connection at A and by two axial bars (1) and (2). Bar (1) is a 34-in.-long bronze [E = 15000 ksi, α=α= 9.2 × 10−6/°F] bar with a cross-sectional area of 1.75 in.2. Bar (2) is a 42-in.-long aluminum alloy [E = 10300 ksi, α=α= 11.9 × 10−6/°F] bar with a cross-sectional

Question
Rigid bar ABCD is supported by a pin connection at A and by two axial bars (1) and (2). Bar (1) is a 34-in.-long bronze [E = 15000 ksi, α=α= 9.2 × 10−6/°F] bar with a cross-sectional area of 1.75 in.2. Bar (2) is a 42-in.-long aluminum alloy [E = 10300 ksi, α=α= 11.9 × 10−6/°F] bar with a cross-sectional area of 2.25 in.2. Both bars are unstressed before the load P is applied. Assume L1=34 in., L2=42 in., a=30 in., b=42 in., and c=16 in. If a concentrated load of P = 27 kips is applied to the rigid bar at D and the temperature is decreased by 120°F, determine:
