Question
A laminated beam is composed of four (4) planks, each of 150 mm x 30 mm,
glued together to form a section 150 mm x 150 mm. The allowable shear
stress in the glue is 850 kPa, the allowable shear stress in the wood is 1050
KPA, and the allowable flexure stress in the wood is 10 MPa. Determine the
maximum uniformly distributed load which can be carried by the beam on a 45
m simple span.
