This problem is most readily solved by the application of the unit load method.
Therefore, from Eq. (5.20), the vertical deflection of C is given by
F0 F1,V L
V,C = (i)
AE
and the horizontal deflection by
F0 F1,H L
H,C = (ii)
AE
in which F1,V and F1,H are the forces in a member due to a unit load positioned at C and
acting vertically downwards and horizontally to the right, in turn, respectively. Further,
the value of L/AE (= 1/20 mm/N) for each member is given and may be omitted from
the initial calculation. All member forces (see Table S.5.1) are found using the method
of joints which is described in textbooks on structural analysis, for example, Structural
and Stress Analysis by T. H. G. Megson (Elsevier, 2005).

Note that the loads F1,V are obtained most easily by dividing the loads F by a factor of
10. Then, from Eq. (i)

V,C = 101.4 × = 5.07 mm

Eq. (ii)

H,C = −26.67 × = −1.33 mm

which is negative and therefore to the left.
The actual deflection, , is then given by

which is downwards and at an angle of tan−1 (1.33/5.07) = 14.7◦ to the left of vertical.

Figure S.5.2 shows a plan view of the plate. Suppose that the point of application of
the load is at D, a distance x from each side of the plate. The deflection of D may be
found using the unit load method so that, from Eq. (5.20), the vertical deflection of D
is given by
F0 F1 L
D = (i)

Initially, therefore, the forces, F0 , must be calculated. Suppose that the forces in the
wires at A, B and C due to the actual load are F0,A , F0,B and F0,C , respectively. Then

remain unloaded until P has moved through a horizontal distance 0.25 cos α, i.e. a
distance of 0.25 × 600/750 = 0.2 mm. Therefore, until P has moved through a hori-
zontal distance of 0.2 mm P is equilibrated solely by the forces in the members 13,
34 and 41 which therefore form a triangular framework. The method of solution is to
find the value of P which causes a horizontal displacement of 0.2 mm of joint 1 in this
