ver T may be attached to A. If, however, the tie T isattached to B beneath its extremity, there may be in addition a bendingstrain in B due to a tendency to turn about the point of attachment of Tas a fulcrum. The strain in T may be calculated by the principle of moments. Themoment of P is Pc, that… … Fig. 121. of its direction to the same point of rotation of B, or Td. The strain inT therefore = Pc •*■ d. As d decreases, the strain on T increases, tendingto infinity as d approaches zero. The strain on the guy-rope is also calculated by the method of moments.The moment of the load about the…
