A temporary wood flume serving as a channel for irrigation water is shown in the figure. The vertical boards forming the sides of the flume are sunk in the ground, which provides a fixed support. The top of the flume is held by tic rods that are tightened so that there is no deflection of the boards at that point. Thus, the vertical boards may be modeled as a beam AB, supported and loaded as shown in the last part of the figure. Assuming that the thickness t of the boards is 1,5 in., the depth d of the water is 40 in., and the height h to the tie rods is 50 in., what is the maximum bending stress in the boards? Hint: The numerically largest bending moment occurs at the fixed support.
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 cylindrical brick chimney of height H weighs w = 825 lb/ft of height (see figure). The inner and outer diameters are d1= 3 ft and d2= 4 ft, respectively. The wind pressure against the side of the chimney is p = 10 lb/ft2 of projected area. Determine the maximum height H if there is to be no tension in the brickwork.
-4-4 A cantilever beam is supported at B by cable BC. The beam carries a uniform load q = 200 N/M. If the length of the beam is L = 3 m, find the force in the cable and the reactions at A. Ignore the axial flexibility of the cable.
For the beam AB shown in Cases 1 and 2, derive and plot expressions for the shear force and bending moment acting on section 1 in terms of the distance x (0 < x< L). [Note: Case 1 results in the conventional V- and M-diagrams, in which the loads are fixed and the location of the section varies; the diagrams for Case 2 (called influence diagrams) show the variation of V and M at a fixed section as the location of the load is varied]
An aluminum bar having a rectangular cross section (2.0 in. × 1.0 in.) and length L = 30 in. is compressed by axial loads that have a resultant P = 2800 lb acting at the midpoint of the long side of the cross section (sec figure). Assuming that the modulus of elasticity E is equal to 10 × 106 psi and that the ends of the bar are pinned, calculate the maximum deflection and the maximum bending moment Mmax.
A 10-ft rigid bar AB is supported with a vertical translational spring at A and a pin at B. The bar is subjected to a linearly varying distributed load with maximum intensity q0. Calculate the vertical deform at ion of the spring if the spring constant is 4 kips/in.
A simple log bridge in a remote area consists of two parallel logs with planks across them (see figure). The logs arc Douglas fir with an average diameter 300 mm. A truck moves slowly across the bridge, which spans 2.5 m. Assume that the weight of the truck is equally distributed between the two logs. Because the wheelbase of the truck is greater than 2,5 m, only one set of wheels is on the bridge at a time. Thus, the wheel load on one log is equivalent to a concentrated load W acting at any position along the span. In addition, the weight of one log and the planks it supports is equivalent to a uniform load of 850 N/m acting on the log. Determine the maxi mum permissible wheel load W based upon (a) an allowable bending stress of 7.0 MPa and (b) an allowable shear stress of 0.75 MPa.
A simple beam with an overhang is subjected to d point load P = 6kN. If the maximum allowable deflect ion at point C is 0.5 mm, select the lightest W360 section from Table F-l{b) that can be used for the beam. Assume that L = 3 m and ignore the distributed weight of the beam.
A simple beam having a span of 6m has a weight of 20 kN/m. It carries a concentrated load of 20 kN at the left end and 40 kN at 2m from the right end of the beam. If it is supported at 2m from the left end and the right end, compute the reaction at the right end of the beam
A uniform, 7.5-m-long beam weighing 6490 N is hinged to a wall and supported by a thin cable attached 1.5 m from the free end of the beam. The cable runs between the beam and the wall and makes a 40° angle with the beam. What is the tension in the cable when the beam is at an angle of 30° above the horizontal?
