You need to design plunge board for diving competition as shown in figure. The board is a cantilever beam which need to be elastically loaded on one end. The beam has length L, and width, b and a height h that is free. The minimum weight beam must support a load F of athlete without failing or deflecting elastically by more than 8. What is the Performance for this design? P = 1/8 P= 1/m P = 1/h P=1/F
