Two wood beams, each of rectangular cross section (3.0 in. x 4.0 in., actual dimensions), are glued together to form a solid beam with dimensions 6.0 in. x 4.0 in. (sec figure). The beam is simply supported with a span of S ft. What is the maximum moment Mmaxthat may be applied at the left support if the allowable shear stress in the glued joint is 200 psi? (Include the effects of the beams own weight, assuming that the wood weighs 35 lb/ft3.) Repeat part (a) if Mmaxis based on allowable bending stress of 2500 psi.
A hollow box beam is constructed with webs of Douglas-fir plywood and flanges of pine, as shown in the figure in a cross-sectional view. The plywood is 1 in. thick and 12 in. wide; the flanges are 2 in. × 4 in. (nominal size). The modulus of elasticity for the plywood is 1,800,000 psi and for the pine is 1,400,000 psi. If the allowable stresses are 2000 psi for the plywood and 1750 psi for the pine, find the allowable bending moment Mmaxwhen the beam is bent about the z axis. Repeat part (a) if the beam is now bent about its y-axis.
During construction of a highway bridge, the main girders are cantilevered outward from one pier toward the next (see figure). Each girder has a cantilever length of 48 m and an I-shaped cross section with dimensions shown in the figure. The load on each girder (during construction) is assumed to be 9,5 kN/m, which includes the weight of the girder. Determine the maximum bending stress in a girder due to this load.
Two flat beams AB and CD, lying in horizontal planes, cross at right angles and jointly support a vertical load P at their midpoints (see figure). Before the load P is applied, the beams just touch each other. Both beams are made of the same material and have the same widths. Also, the ends of both beams are simply supported. The lengths of beams AB and CD are LABand LCD, respectively. What should be the ratio tABltCDof the thicknesses of the beams if all four reactions arc to be the same?
An overhanging beam ABC has a guided support at A, a rectangular cross section, and supports an upward uniform load q = PtL over AB and a downward concentrated load P at the free end C {see figure). The span length from A to B is L, and the length of the overhang is L12. The cross section has a width of A and a height A. Point D is located midway between the supports at a distance d from the top face of the beam. Knowing that the maximum tensile stress (principal stress) at point Z> is tr, = 38 MPa, determine the magnitude of the load P. Data for the beam are L = 1.75 m, b = 50 mm, // = 220 mm, and d = 55 mm.
A bimetallic beam used in a temperature-control switch consists of strips of aluminum and copper bonded together as shown in the figure, which is a cross-sectional view. The width of the beam is LO in,, and each strip has a thickness of 1/16 in. Under the action of a bending moment M = 12 lb-in, acting about the z axis, what are the maximum stresses aaand ecin the aluminum and copper, respectively? (Assume fA, = 10,5 x l0 psi and ecu= 16,8 × 106 psi,)
A wood beam in a historic theater is reinforced with two angle sections at the outside lower corners (see figure). If the allowable stress in the wood is 12 M Pa and that in the steel is 140 M Pa, what is ratio of the maximum permissible moments for the beam before and after reinforcement with the angle sections? See Appendix F Table F-5(b) for angle section properties. Assume that ew= 12 GPa and E3=210 GPa.
A box beam is constructed of four wood boards as shown in the figure part a. The webs are S in, x 1 irt and the flanges arc 6 in. X 1 in. boards (actual dimensions), joined by screws for which the allowable load in shear is F = 250 lb per screw. Calculate the maximum permissible longitudinal spacing ,vfflax of the screws if the shear force ^is 12001b. Repeat part (a) if the flanges arc attached to the webs using a horizontal arrangement of screws as shown in the figure part b.
The cross section of a narrow-gage railway bridge is shown in part a of the figure. The bridge is constructed with longitudinal steel grinders that support the wood cross ties. The bridge is constructed with longitudinal steel girders that support the wood cross ties. The girders are restrained against lateral buckling by diagonal bracing, as indicated by the dashed lines. The spacing of the girders is S1= 50 in. and the spacing of the rails is s2= 30 in. The load transmitted by each rail to a single tie is P = 1500 1b. The cross section of a tie, shown in part b of the figure, has a width b =5.0 in. and depth d. Determine the minimum value of d based upon an allowable bending stress of 1125 psi in the wood tie. (Disregard the weight of the tie itself.)
A tension member is to be constructed of two pieces or plastic glued along plane pq (see figure). For purposes of cutting and gluing, the angle ?? must be between 25 and 45. The allowable stresses on the glued joint in tension and shear are 5.0 MPa and 3.0 MPa, respectively (a) Determine the angle it so that the bar will carry the largest load P.
