Hey guys, girls stupid question
Whats the actual formula for elongation of a tie rod
[tex]\delta = \frac{FL_{O}}{EA}[/tex]
or
[tex]\delta = \frac{FL}{EA}[/tex]
When searching the net, I've found some use the tie rod length "L"
Others use the original length of the tie rod LO (In my lecture notes the lecturer has used both interchangeably...)
I don't have a textbook on hand to check it against so I'm not 100% sure which one i can use.
Cheers Trent
