Chapter 11, Problem 11.70(choose chapter or problem)
A short length of a rolled-steel column supports a rigid plate on which two loads P and Q are applied as shown. The strains at two points A and B on the center lines of the outer faces of the flanges have been measured and found to be \(\epsilon_{A}=-400 \times 10^{-6} \ \mathrm{in} . / \mathrm{in}\). and \(\epsilon_{B}=-300 \times 10^{-6} \ \mathrm{in} . / \mathrm{in}\). Knowing that \(E=29 \times 10^{6}\) psi, determine the magnitude of each load.
