A simple beam with an overhang supports a uniform load of intensity q = 1200 lb/ft and a concentrated P = 3000 lb load at 8 ft to the right of A and also at C (sec figure). The uniform load includes an allowance for the weight of the beam. The allowable stresses in bending and shear are 18 ksi and 11 ksi. respectively. Select from Table F-2(a), Appendix F, the lightest I-beam (S shape) that will support the given loads. Hint: Select a beam based upon the bending stress and then calculate the maximum shear stress. If the beam is overstressed in shear, select a heavier beam and repeat.

A heavy object of weight W is dropped onto the midpoint of a simple beam AB from a height h (see figure). Obtain a formula for the maximum bending stress ^ma* due to tne filing weight in terms of h, st, and 5st, where it is the maximum bending stress and Sstis the deflection at the midpoint when the weight W acts on the beam as a statically applied load. Plot a graph of the ratio o"max/ö"it (that is, the ratio of the dynamic stress to the static stress) versus the ratio iifS^r(Let h/S^ vary from 0 to 10.)
A wood beam AB on simple supports with span length equal to 10 ft is subjected to a uniform load of intensity 125 lb/ft acting along the entire length of the beam, a concentrated load of magnitude 7500 lb acting at a point 3 ft from the right-hand support, and a moment at A of 18,500 ft-lb (sec figure). The allowable stresses in bending and shear, respectively, are 2250 psi and 160 psi. From the table in Appendix G, select the lightest beam that will support the loads (disregard the weight of the beam). Taking into account the weight of the beam (weight density = 35 lb/ft3), verify that the selected beam is satisfactory, or if it is not, select a new beam.
