The deck is supported by the two 40-mm-square columns. Column AB is pinned at A and fixed at B, whereas CD is pinned at C and D. If the deck is prevented from sidesway, determine the position d of the center of gravity of the load and the load’s greatest magnitude without causing the deck to collapse. Both columns are made from Douglas Fir.
