A structural steel wide-flange shape [E = 204 GPa; I = 201 × 106 mm4] is loaded and supported as shown. The beam is supported at B by a 20-mm-diameter solid aluminum [E = 68 GPa] rod. After a concentrated load of 40 kN is applied to the tip of the cantilever, determine the force produced in the aluminum rod. Assume the length between B and C is decreased by a factor of 5π.
