What is the equivalent concentrated load of a triangular load which varies from 0 at one support and 9 kN/m at the other support carried by a 6-m simply supported beam? (Answer must be in kN.)
The maximum safe load of a horizontal rectangular beam of a given material,supported at the ends, varies directly as the breadth and the square of the depth, and inversely as the distance between supports. If the maximum safe load is 3000 lbs for a beam 5 inches wide and 12 inches deep, with supports 12 feet apart, find the maximum load for a beam which is 10 cm wide and 10 inches deep, with supports 3 meters apart.
