Question
6.3-6 The composite beam shown in the figure is
simply supported and carries a total uniform load of
40 kN/m on a span length of 4.0 m. The beam is built of
a southern pine wood member having cross-sectional
dimensions of 150 mm × 250 mm and two brass plates
of cross-sectional dimensions 30 mm × 150 mm.
(a) Determine the maximum stresses og and o, in
the brass and wood, respectively, if the moduli of
elasticity are Eg = 96 GPa and E = 14 GPa.
(Disregard the weight of the beam.)
(b) Find the required thickness of the brass
plates so that the plate and wood reach their
allowable stress values of oB = 70 MPa and
Oaw = 8.5 MPa simultaneously under the maxi-
mum moment. What is the maximum moment?
40 kN/m
30 mm
250 mm
4.0 m
30 mm
150 mm
