A flanged wooden shape is used to support the loads shown on the beam in Figure (a). The dimensions of the
shape are shown in Figure (b). Consider the entire 18 ft length of the beam and determine:
(a) the maximum tensile bending stress at any location along the beam, and

#### Figure Description

**Figure a: Uniformly Distributed and Point Loads on a Cantilever Beam**

- The diagram illustrates a cantilever beam with point and distributed loads.
- The beam is fixed at point \( A \).
- A uniformly distributed load (UDL) of 800 lb/ft is applied along the length from \( A \) to \( B \), extending for 7 feet.
- A point load of 1,800 lb is applied downward at point \( C \), which is 3 feet from point \( B \).
- Another point load of 2,100 lb is applied downward at point \( D \), which is 4 feet from point \( C \).
- The beam ends at point \( E \), 4 feet from point \( D \).

**Figure b: I-Beam Cross-Section**

- This figure shows the cross-section of an I-beam.
- The total width of the top and bottom flanges is 10 inches.
- The height of the web is 8 inches.
- The thickness of both the top and bottom flanges is 2 inches.
- The thickness of the web is not explicitly provided.
- Dimensions \( y \) and \( z \) represent the centroidal axes of the I-beam.

#### Additional Information

- Given data for calculations: The centroid \( \bar{y} \) is located at a distance of 6.8333 inches from the bottom face of the beam.
- The moment of inertia about the z-axis, \( I_z \), is given as 862.667 in\(^4\).

These figures and data are essential for understanding load distribution, analyzing stress, and calculating deflection in beam structures.
