- The cross section of a sandwich beam consisting of fiberglass faces and a lightweight plastic core is shown in the figure. The width b of the beam is 50 mm, the thickness I of the faces is 4 mm, and the height hcof the core is 92 mm (total height A = 100 mm). The moduli of elasticity are 75 GPa for the fiberglass and 1.2 GPa for the plastic. A bending moment M = 275 N · m acts about the z axis.

By removing a small amount of material at the top and bottom corners, as shown by the shaded triangles in the figure, you can increase the section modulus and obtain a stronger beam, even though the area of the cross section is reduced. Determine the ratio ß defining the areas that should be removed in order to obtain the strongest cross section in bending.

The hanger fits snugly between the beams before the uniform load is applied to beam DE.
