Oops, forgot to upload the picture so you can check my work. Picture uploaded for reference. The pin in question is pin C. I don't need to know in B do I? As it doesn't ask for pin B, it ask for the bar AB. So I have solved for the shear in pin C, but the stress/strain in bar AB.

Homework Statement The simple pin-connected structure carries a concentrated load P as shown. The rigid bar supported by structure AB and by pin at C. The steel strut Ab has a cross sectional area of .25in2 and a yield strength of 60ksi. The diameter of the steel pin at C is 0.375in and the...

Thanks for the help!

Homework Statement The pin-connected structure is subjected to a load P as shown. Inclined member (1) has a cross-sectional area of 250mm2 and a yield strength of 255MPa. It is connected to rigid member ABC with a 16-mm-diameter pin in a double shear connection at B. The ultimate shear strength...
