A barge with a crane for loading and unloading is 18m long, 9m wide and 3m high. The weight of the barge and crane lies on the vertical center line 1. 8m from the bottom of the barge for any position of the crane. Determine the maximum horizontal distance that the crane could swing a load of 11,000kg out to one side from the center line of the barge at deck level so that no part of the base of the scow may leave the water.

SITUATION 3: A 12-m simply supported bridge is constructed with 100-mm concrete slab deck supported by precast concrete stringers spaced 800 mm on center. Analyze the stringers when subjected to a moving load consisting of 3 evenly spaced axle loads at 3 m and equivalent to 20 kN, 30 kN and 40 kN respectively. The self-weight of the stringers is 8.5 kN/m and the concrete deck has a unit weight of 24 kN/m3. Neglect all other superimposed loads. Calculate: (a) the maximum shear force in the stringers; (b) the maximum bending moment in the stringers.
Please I want a solution of this question urgently. many Thanks
A farm water trough of length 5 m and width 4 m is supported on four timber beams of Douglas Fir. The self-weight of each timber beam is 18 kg/m while the tank has a mass of 2 tonnes. The imposed load is due to the tank containing 0.5 m depth of water. Assuming the beams are also 5 m in length and carry equal load:(a) Calculate the permanent load per metre on each beam.(b) Calculate the imposed load per metre of each beam.From the loads calculated in (a) and (b) determine the ultimate limit state load usingE=1.2G+1.5Q (d) If the density of the timber is 510 kg/cu.m and the width of each beam is 120 mm determinethe depth of beam.(e) If the maximum bending stress is 7 MPa is the structure safe. i.e. Is the maximum bendingstress less that the allowable stress. (Assume loads are uniformly distributed on the beams)(f) What is the factor of safety against bending failure (FS = max allowable stress/actual stress)(g) If the maximum allowable shear stress is 1.2 MPa what is the factor of safety…

Draw the free-body diagram for the following problem. The jib crane shown.
The loaded scow has a draft of 1.8 m in fresh water when in upright position. The scow is 6m wide and 12m long & 2.4 m deep. The center of gravity of the scow is 1.8 m above the bottom of the scow along the vertical axis of symmetry. What is the maximum safe weight that can be moved transversely from the center of the scow & unloaded over the side without sinking it?
