2. The cross section of an idealised thin wall symmetrical wing box beam is shown in Figure Q2. The beam is carrying a vertical concentrated point load of 1kN through a point at 250mm to the right of the web AB. Assume sheet materials carry shear forces only and booms carry the end tensile or compressive loads. Assume E=70GPa and G= 25GPa Calculate: • the shear flow distribution in the walls of this idealised beam. • the angle of twist per meter length of the beam if the thickness of the vertical webs and skins are 2mm and 1mm each respectively.

2. The cross section of an idealised thin wall symmetrical wing box beam is shown in
Figure Q2. The beam is carrying a vertical concentrated point load of 1kN through
a point at 250mm to the right of the web AB. Assume sheet materials carry shear
forces only and booms carry the end tensile or compressive loads. Assume
E=70GPa and G= 25GPa
Calculate:
• the shear flow distribution in the walls of this idealised beam.
• the angle of twist per meter length of the beam if the thickness of the vertical
webs and skins are 2mm and 1mm each respectively.
