Question

The topic is all about thermal stress. Please use pen and paper to solve and show the conversion in the solution.

In solution: Show the relationship in deformation:

 

The rigid bar ABCD of negligible weight is initially horizontal, and the steel rods attached at A and
C are stress-free. The 20-kip load is then applied and the temperature of the steel rods is changed
by AT. Find AT for which the stresses in the two steel rods will be equal. Use a= 6.5 x 10-6 /°F and
E=29x10°.
A = 0.5 in.2
