Chapter 6, Problem 6.41P
The 24-ft timber floor joist is designed to carry a uniformly distributed load. Because only 16-ft timbers are available, the joist is to be fabricated from two pieces connected by a nailed joint D. Determine the distance b for the most advantageous position of the joint D, knowing that nailed joints are strong in shear but weak in bending.

Two small channel sections DF and EH have been welded to the uniform beam AB of weight W = 3 kN to form the rigid structural member shown. This member is being lifted by two cables attached at D and E . Knowing that 0= 30° and neglecting the weight of the channel sections, (a) draw the shear and bending-moment diagrams for beam AB, (b) determine the maximum absolute values of the shear and bending moment in the beam.
For the steel truss and loading shown, determine the magnitude of the force (lb) of member BE, knowing that x = 12.2 ft, y = 7.8 ft, and P = 28550 lb. Round off only on the final answer expressed in 3 decimal places .
Two wooden planks, each 7/8 in thick and 6in wide, are joined by the glued mortise joint shown. Knowing that the wood used shears off along its grain when the average shearing stress reaches 120psi, determine the smallest allowable length d of the cuts if the joint is to withstand an axial load of magnitude P=1200-lb.
