Two cantilever beams AB and DC are in contact with each other at their free ends through a roller as shown in the figure. Both beams have a square cross-section of 50 mm x 50 mm, and the elastic modulus E = 70 GPa. If beam AB is subjected to a uniformly distributed load of 20 kN/m, then the compressive force experienced by the roller is _______ kN. (round off to one decimal place)

Correct : 2.2 to 2.6
