Homework SourseA brass pipe having the cross section shown has an axial loa
A brass pipe having the cross section shown has an axial load P applied 5 mm from its geometric axis. Using E = 160 GPa, determine the load P for which the horizontal deflection at the midpoint C is y(max) = 8 mm, (b) the corresponding maximum stress in the column.
Hint- pinned/pinned connection and convert everything to meters.
120 mm 2.8 m t=6mm Solution
A brass pipe having the cross section shown has an axial load P applied 5 mm from its geometric axis. Using E = 160 GPa, determine the load P for which the horizontal deflection at the midpoint C is y(max) = 8 mm, (b) the corresponding maximum stress in the column.
P = 160 * 0.008 = 1.28
