2/73 The bracket is fastened to the girder by means of the two rivets A and B and supports the 2-kN force. Re- place this force by a force acting along the centerline between the rivets and a couple. Then redistribute this force and couple by replacing it by two forces, one at A and the other at B, and ascertain the forces supported by the rivets. Ans. FA = 0.8 kN FB = 2.8 kN 250 mm 100 mm 2 kN 300 mm
