An upward load is applied to a square rod that has a width of 10.16 mm. The rod is connected to the ground using a pin that has a diameter of 9.90 mm. If the average shear stress in the pin is limited to 165 MPa, determine the maximum load that can be applied to this connection.

A load of P = 675 lb is applied to beam ABC. Bar (1) is made of brass [E = 13,800 ksi; ν = 0.34] and has a circular cross section with a diameter of 1.06 in. Determine the magnitude of the normal strain in bar (1). Let a = 38 in., b = 15 in., and c = 11 in.

Rigid beam ABC supports two rods that initially have no strain. If a temperature increase in rod (1) creates a normal strain of 2,335 μin./in. in it, determine the normal strain in rod (2). The initial lengths are a = 10 in., b = 13 in., c = 32 in., and d = 8 in. Assume there is no slack in the connections.
