A cantilever timber beam with a span of L = 3.5 m supports a uniformly distributed load w. The beam width is b = 260 mm and the beam height is h = 180 mm. The allowable bending stress of the wood is 5 MPa. Determine the magnitude of the maximum load w that may be carried by the beam. Answer: w= kN/m.

Question

I have gotten this question wrong twice, so the answer isn't 3.43 or .413 kN/m.

A cantilever timber beam with a span of L = 3.5 m supports a uniformly distributed load w. The beam width is b = 260 mm and the beam
height is h = 180 mm. The allowable bending stress of the wood is 5 MPa. Determine the magnitude of the maximum load w that may
be carried by the beam.
Answer: w =
i
