The device shown is used to straighten bowed decking boards just prior to final nailing to the joists. There is a lower bracket (not shown) at O which fixes the part OA to a joist, so that the pivot A may be considered fixed. For a given force Pexerted perpendicular to the handle ABC as shown, determine the corresponding normal force N applied to the bent board near point B. Neglect friction. Answer: N- P 15 3° B 176 mm 507 mm)
