Find the formula for the maximum stress of a cantilever beam that have four concentrated load at any arbitrary point and a uniformly distributed load due to the own weight of the beam. Let E be the modulus of elasticity.
Floor joists are structural members which support flooring in structures, as in the diagram on the right. The floor sits upon the minor length of the joist, and the joists are set at equal spacing to reach the desired floor stiffness. How many 2x6 joists would it take to equal the floor stiffness of the same floor supported by ten (10) 2x12 joists of the same species?
A simply supported beam, 50mm wide by 100mm high and 300 mm long is subjected to a concentrated load of 3000 N at a point 100 mm from one of the supports.   Draw the shear force and bending moment diagrams for the beam.

  • A composite spring has two closed coiled springs connected in series, each spring has 12 coils at a mean diameter of 25mm. Find the wire diameter for one if the other is of 2.5mm diameter and the stiffness of the composite spring is 700N/m. Estimate the greatest load that can be carried by the composite spring, and the corresponding extension, for a maximum shear stress of 180MPa. Take G=80GPa.
    Draw the shear-force and bending-moment diagram for the beam shown.  Assume the upward reaction provided by the ground to be uniformly distributed.  Let a = 5.0 ft, b = 3.4 ft, P = 25 kips, and w = 1.1 kips/ft.  Label all significant points on each diagram.  Determine the maximum value of (a) the internal shear force and (b) the internal bending moment.Note that answers may be positive or negative. Here, "maximum" refers to the largest magnitude value, but you should enter your shear force and bending moment with the correct sign, using the sign convention presented in Section 7.2 of the textbook. If the magnitudes of the largest positive and largest negative values are the same, enter a positive number.
    A simply supported beam of hollow rectangular cross section is 100mm deep and 60mm wide with a wall thickness of 10mm. The beam has a span of 6m and carries a load as shown . Neglecting the weight of the beam draw a bending moment diagram and calculate the maximum bending moment. And determine the maximum bending stress in the material.
