1-16. Rigid beam AC is
subjected to a normally distributed force 
kN as
shown. The beam is supported by support beam BD which has a cross
sectional area 
mm2, a modulus of
elasticity 
GPa, and an allowable axial deformation 
mm. What is the strain distribution? What
is the probability of failure? Neglect the weight of the beam.

Note - This is not to be solved using 
but with stress strain relations.
