rectangular post is fixed at the base and is used to hold a freeway sign. The sigh has a weight of W = 3 kips, wind will exert a maximum force of 2 Kips and is directed as shown. Ignore the weight of the post: (a) Determine ALL internal forces at the base of the post (moments, torques, normal, and shear forces). (b) Determine the combined stresses at point A on the base, in- cluding the total normal stress (total) and the total shear stress (rtotal). (c) Determine the combined stresses at point B on the base, in- cluding the total normal stress (total) and the total shear stress (total). 20 ft 10 ft 16 in 8 in 16 in 8 in B .2k
