Member CD of the assembly shown is an aluminium bar 0.80 meter long. Cross-sectional dimension of the bar is such that, its width is three times its thickness. For functional design of the bar CD, the allowable axial stress is 70 MPa, and the total elongation is not to exceed 0.72 mm. E value for aluminium is 70 GPa. Assume the connection at C does not reduce the net area of the bar. The thickness of the bar in metre is
