### Problem Description

A beam is subjected to equal bending moments of \( M_z = 3300 \, \text{N}\cdot\text{m} \). The cross-sectional dimensions are given as follows: 
- \( b = 190 \, \text{mm} \)
- \( c = 26 \, \text{mm} \)
- \( d = 75 \, \text{mm} \)
- \( t = 5 \, \text{mm} \)

**Required:**
Determine:

(a) The centroid location, the moment of inertia about the z-axis, and the controlling section modulus about the z-axis.

(b) The bending stress at point \( H \). Note that tensile stress is considered positive, while compressive stress is negative.

(c) The bending stress at point \( K \). Again, tensile stress is positive, and compressive stress is negative.

(d) The maximum bending stress produced in the cross section. Tensile stress is positive, while compressive stress is negative.

### Diagram Explanation

The illustration provides two views of the beam:

- **3D View:**
  - The diagram shows the beam with the bending moments \( M_z \) applied at both ends, which are indicated by curved arrows around the beam's z-axis.

- **Cross-sectional View:**
  - The L-shaped cross-section is detailed with dimensions labeled:
    - \( b \), the width of the base, is 190 mm.
    - \( c \), the height of the upper flange, is 26 mm.
    - \( d \), the overall height including the web, is 75 mm.
    - Points \( H \) and \( K \) are marked on the cross-section.
    - \( t \) is the thickness, noted as type (typical) for various portions of the cross-section.
  
The y and z-axes are drawn to aid in identifying dimensions relevant to the calculation of the centroids, moments of inertia, and stresses. The section moduli are evaluated about the z-axis.
