10-134 The output from a strain gage located on the bottom surface of the hat-section shown in Fig. P10-134 will
be used to indicate the magnitude of the load P applied to the section. The hat-section is made of
aluminum alloy (E = 73 GPa and = 1 3 ) and is 24 mm wide. When the maximum load P = 500 N is
applied to the section, the strain gage should read = +1000 m/m . Plot a curve showing the
combinations of thickness t and height h that will satisfy the specification. Limit the range of h from 0 to
