•Timber beam
Safe working stress = 25 MPa
Cross-section dimensions:
height = 119 mm,
width = 66 mm
Proving ring number 293.


Steel beam

 Safe working stress = 200 MPa
 Cross-section dimensions:
external height = 149 mm,
external width = 50 mm,
wall thickness = 3.0 mm,
Proving ring number 1522.

1)Calculate safe max bending moment in the central part of the beam using Mmax = (I)(max stress)/(D/2)
2) calculate Safe applied force in the proving ring or tie rod, assuming a symmetrical setup as in the photo
with a ‘lever arm’ of 600 mm
