A flat bar of aluminium alloy 24 mm wide and 6 mm thick is placed between steel bars each 24mm wide and 9 mm thick to form a composite bar (24×24)mm as shown in fig. 2(b). The three bars are fastened together at their ends when the temperature is 10°C. Find the stresses in each of the material when the temperature of the whole assembly is raised to 50°C. If at the new temperature a compressive load of 20 kN is applied to the composite bar, What are the final stresses in steel and aluminium?
