Current Attempt in Progress A cantilever timber beam with a span of L = 3.9 m supports a uniformly distributed load w. The beam width is b = 270 mm and the bear height is h=140 mm. The allowable bending stress of the wood is 5.8 MPa. Determine the magnitude of the maximum load w that may be carried by the beam. Answer: w= IB b kN/m.

A rectangular reinforced concrete beam has a cross-section dimensions b=400mm andoverall depth h= 800mm. The beam as shown in the image below carries asuperimposed dead load of 12 kN/m (excluding the self-Weight of the beam) andspecified live load of 20 kN/m. The beam has a compressive strength of 30Mpa andreinforcement yield strength of 400 Mpa a) What is the self weight of the beam? b) What is the modulus of elasticy and yeild strain of reinforcement

A simply supported wood beam of length L = 8 ft carries a concentrated load P at midspan, as shown. The cross- sectional dimensions of the beam are b = 7 in. and h = 13 in. If the allowable shear strength of the wood is 130 psi, determine the maximum load P that may be applied at midspan. Neglect the effects of the beam's self-weight. 12 Answer: P = IM P B 7/2 C X lb N b h
