The block of weight W in the figure below hangs from the pin at A. The bars AB and AC are pinned to the support at B and C. The areas are 800 mm2 for AB and 400 mm2 for AC. Neglecting the weight of the bars, determine the maximum safe value of W if the stress in AB is limited to 110 MPa and the in AC to 120 MPa.
