The simply supported joist is used in the construction of a floor for a building. In order to keep the floor low with respect to the sill beams C and D, the ends of the joist are notched as shown. If the allowable shear stress is tallow = 350 psi and the allowable bending stress is s allow = 1700 psi, determine the smallest height h so that the beam will support a load of P = 600 lb. Also, will the entire joist safely support the load? Neglect the stress concentration at the notch.
The bar has a thickness of 0.5 in. and the allowable bending stress is sallow= 20 ksi. Determine the maximum moment M that can be applied.
If a = 3 in. and the wood has an allowable normal stress of sallow = 1.5 ksi, and an allowable shear stress of tallow = 150 psi, determine the maximum allowable value of P that can act on the beam.
