Image in Figure 1 shows an awning supported by galvanized steel rod for the
building. The tie rod is pin connected to the edge of overhang and the wall. Assume
the awning is pin supported from the building wall and answer the following
questions. Explain your answer with an equilibrium analysis, using dimensions
and loads.
a) Determine the effect to the force in rod if support at the wall is moved to the
lower position.
b) Determine the effect to the force in rod if support at the awning is moved to
the center (inside) of the awning.
c) Analyze what will happen if two of the rods in the middle are removed.
Discuss what can be done in order to increase the support to the awning
with only two rods.
