2. A cantilever, made of a certain material, of 2 m length and square section 212 mm on its side, just fails in bending when a point load of 13,252 N is placed at its free end. A beam of rectangular cross section, and made of same material, 150 mm wide and 300 mm deep, is simply supported over a span of 3 m. Calculate: (a) the stress at which the cantilever beam fails in kPa and (b) the maximum concentrated load that the beam can carry at its center without failure in kN.

-15 A composite beam is constructed froma wood beam (3 in. x 6 in.) and a steel plate (3 in, wide). The wood and the steel are securely fastened to act as a single beam. The beam is subjected to a positive bending moment M. = 75 kip-in. Calculate the required thickness of the steel plate based on the following limit states: Allowable compressive stress in the wood = 2 ksi Allowable tensile stress in the wood = 2 ksi Allowable tensile stress in the steel plate = 16 ksi Assume that Ew= 1,500 ksi and es= 30,000 ksi.
A square tube section has side dimension of 20 in. arid thickness of 0.5 in. If the section is used for a 10-ft-long beam subjected to 1250 kip-in, torque at both ends, calculate the maximum shear stress and the angle of twist between the ends. Use G = 11,600 ksi.
A pontoon bridge (see figure) is constructed of two longitudinal wood beams, known as bulks, that span between adjacent pontoons and support the transverse floor beams, which arc called chesses. For purposes of design, assume that a uniform floor load of 7.5 kPa acts over the chesses. (This load includes an allowance for the weights of the chesses and balks.) Also, assume that the chesses are 2.5 m long and that the balks are simply supported with a span of 3.0 m. The allowable bending stress in the wood is 15 MPa. If the balks have a square cross section, what is their minimum required width b^l Repeat part (a) if the balk width is 1.5 b and the balk depth is b; compare the cross-sectional areas of the two designs.
Since the allowable normal stress of AC beam loaded with uniformly distributed load is 100MPa in tension, 120MPa in compression and 50MPa in shear stress, check whether the beam is safe.
A circular solid cross-section cantilever is fixed at one end and bears a concentrated load P at the other. Over a 2m length, the diameter increases uniformly from 200 mm at the free end to 400 mm at the fixed end. At what distance from the free end will the bending stress in the cantilever be maximum? If the concentrated load P=30 KN, what is the maximum bending stress
For a steel circular cantilever beam, 10mm in diameter, 700mm in length with an applied load of 7.848N in the free end, produce a sketch showing the distribution of stresses across the beam section for an applied moment of M=(3/4My+1/3Mp). Where My=24543.5 N.mm and Mp=41666.66667 N.mm and yeild stregth of material is 250Mpa. Cheers
a rectangular beam with a span of 20ft is simply supported at both ends. The maximum flexural stress for the beam is 1200 psi and the dimensions of its cross-section are: b=4 in and h=10 in. If the beam is to be loaded at mid-span with a concentrated load of 2000lbs, will the beam collapse?

Since the allowable normal stress of AC beam loaded with uniformly distributed load is 100MPa in tensile, 120MPa in compression and 50MPa in shear stress, check whether the beam is safe.
A simply supported beam carries a concentrated load at the center which fluctuates from a value of W to 4 W. The span of the beam is 497 mm and its cross-section is circular with a diameter of 52 mm. Take ultimate stress of beam material as 687 MPa, Yield stress as 0.55 times ultimate stress and the endurance strength as 0.45 times the value of ultimate stress and take a factor of safety of 1.5. Calculate the maximum value of "W", if the variable stress induced in the beam is 124 N/mm2. Using Goodman relation calculate the value of mean stress in N/mm2.
