ExAmpLE

m5.14 A rectangular bar 30 mm wide and 24 mm thick

made of aluminum [E = 70 GPa; α = 23.0 × 10 −6 /°C] and two

rectangular copper [E = 120 GPa; α = 16.0 × 10 −6 /°C] bars

30 mm wide and 12 mm thick are connected by two smooth

11 mm diameter pins. When the pins are initially inserted

into the bars, both the copper and aluminum bars are stress

free. After the temperature of the assembly has increased by

65°C, determine

(a) the internal axial force in the aluminum bar.

(b) the normal strain in the copper bars.

(c) the shear stress in the 11 mm diameter pins.

ExAmpLE 5.8

A pin-connected structure is loaded and supported as shown. Member

BCDF is a rigid plate. Member (1) is a steel [E = 200 GPa; A 1 =

310 mm 2 ; α = 11.9 × 10 −6 /°C] bar, and member (2) is an aluminum

[E = 70 GPa; A 2 = 620 mm 2 ; α = 22.5 × 10 −6 /°C] bar. A load of

6 kN is applied to the plate at F. If the temperature increases by

20°C, compute the normal stresses in members (1) and (2).

Plan the Solution

The five-step procedure for solving indeterminate problems will

be used. Since the rigid plate is pinned at C, it will rotate about C.

A deformation diagram will be sketched to show the relationship

between the rigid-plate deflections at joints B and D, based

on the assumption that the plate rotates clockwise about C. The

joint deflections will be related to the deformations δ 1 and δ 2 ,

which will lead to a compatibility equation expressed in terms of

the member forces F 1 and F 2 .

SOLUTION

Step 1 — Equilibrium Equations:

∑ M = F (100 mm) −F

(300 mm) − (6kN)(350 mm) = 0

Step 2 — Geometry of Deformation: Sketch the deflected

position of the rigid plate. Since the plate is pinned at C, the

plate will rotate about C. The relationship between the deflections

of joints B and D can be expressed by similar triangles:
