A beam supporting a uniform load of intensity q throughout its length rests on pistons at points A, C and B (sec figure). The cylinders are filled with oil and are connected by a tube so that the oil pressure on each piston is the same. The pistons at A and B have diameter d1and the piston at C has diameter D2. (a) Determine the ratio of d2to d1so that the largest bending moment in the beam is as small as possible. Under these optimum conditions, what is the largest bending moment Mmaxin the beam? What is the difference in elevation between point C and the end supports?
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 weight W = 4000 lb falls through a height h = 0.5 in, onto the midpoint of a simple beam of length L = 10 ft (see figure).

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.

The tubes have a constant thickness ; = 10.0 mm and average diameters dA = 90 mm and dB = 270 mm at ends A and B, re s pec lively. Because the thickness is small compared to the diameters, the moment of inerlia at any cross section may be obtained from the formula / = jrrf3;/8 (see Case 22, Appendix E); therefore, the section modulus mav be obtained from the formula S = trdhlA.

The distance between supports is L = 20 ft and the height of the frame is h = 4 ft. The members are rigidly connected at B and C. Calculate the intensity of load q0 required to produce a maximum bending moment of 80 kip-in. in the horizontal member BC. If the load q0 is reduced to one-half of the value calculated in part (a), what is the maximum bending moment in member BC? What is the ratio of this moment to the moment of 80 kip-in. in part (a)?
