ANSWER:
Problem 14-76Determine the vertical displacement of joint E. Each A992 steel member has a cross-sectionalarea of 1.5 in .2 Step-by-step solution Step 1 of 19 ^Consider moments about A. M = A 1(L ) - R (L ) = 0 AB C ACHere, R C the reaction force at C and L ABis the length of the member AB.Substitute 16 ft for L AC and 8 ft for L AB 1(8) - RC16) = 0 R = 0.5 kip C
