Normal stress Definition and 44 Threads

The book's answer key shows a normal stress P/A as a result of adding the 350LB force from the cable to the cos(45 degrees)(350LB). It shows both of these as compressive forces. I can see how the cos(45 degrees)(350LB) is compressive; the force of the 350LB load is bending the boom clockwise...
