    This document contains a multi-part question about analyzing stresses and deflections in beams and columns. It provides dimensional parameters and material properties, and asks the student to calculate things like stresses, strains, loads, and deflections based on the given information. Calculations are required to determine yields loads, stresses at specific points, buckling loads, shear and normal stresses, and bending radii and deflections. The questions cover basic structural analysis and mechanics of materials concepts.

    Question 1 (10 points): The rigid beam is supported by the three


    posts A, B , and C of equal length. Posts A and C have a cross-
    sectional area of 4400+MN ( in mm2 ) and are made of a material for
    which E = 70 GPa and Y = 20 MPa. Post B has a cross-section of
    300+MN ( in mm2 ) and is made of a material for which E1 = 100 GPa
    and Y1 = 590 MPa.
