3. The following beam is exposed to a shear force of V = 30 kN, (20 PTS) a) Determine the maximum shear stress developed in the beam. b) The beam has an allowable shear stress of 2.5 MPa. Determine the maximum shear force V that can be applied to the cross section. 150 mm
Question 4: Shear stress in a beam (40 marks)
Consider the beam section illustrated in the figure to the
right. The beam has a shearing force of V = 5 kN acting vertically
through the shear center as illustrated. (a) Determine the shear
stress at the three points in the beam section labelled (i), (ii),
and (iii). [20 marks] (b) Produce a plot showing the direction and
distribution of shear stress across the beam section, noting the
shape of the...
A 3 m rigid bar AB is supported with a vertical translational spring at A and a pin at B The bar is subjected to a linearly varying distributed load with maximum intensity g Calculate the vertical deformation of the spring if the spring constant is 700 kN/m. (ans: 21.43 mm) 2. A steel cable with a nominal diameter of 25 mm is used in a construction yard to lift a bridge section weighing 38 kN. The cable has an...
