A timber beam AB of length L and rectangular cross section carries a single concentrated load P at its midpoint C. (a) Show that the ratio Tm/ m of the maximum values of the shearing and normal stresses in the beam is equal to h/2L, where h and L are, respectively, the depth and the length of the beam. (b) Determine the depth h and the width b of the beam, knowing that L = 2 m, P = 40 kN, 7m = 960 kPa, and om = 12 MPa.
Determine the shape of a fully stressed, simply supported beam that supportsa concentrated force at its center, Fig. 11–11a. The beam has a rectangularcross section of constant width b, and the allowable stress is sallow.
Determine the maximum load F that can be applied at the free end of a 3 m cantilever beam of universal rolled-steel beam cross-section, 356 mm deep, with a moment of inertia of 142 × 106 mm4, if the allowable stress is 76 MPa.
