Catherine is planning to build a stage. Her brother bought beams with cross section at hand as shown in Fig.Q2. The maximum moment acting on a beam is 180 kNm. She has a choice of either using Birch wood which has both tensile and compressive strength of 4 GRą or Brazil Nut which has both tensile and compressive strength of 5 GPa. Determine through calculation whether this cross section would be applicable.
