A structural member in a nuclear reactor is made of a aluminium. An axial load of 22 kN is to be supported by the member. Use a factor of safety of 3.5 relative to yielding. EAl = 100 GPa, σy = 400 MPa. The material has elastic behavior.
What is the load on the member if it is 1 mm long and its elongation is 0.5 mm?
5. Determine the greatest load P the frame will support without causing the A-36 steel
member BC to buckle. Due to the forked ends on the member, consider the supports at B and
C to act as pins for x-x axis buckling and as fixed supports for y-y axis buckling.
