Question
A floor is supported by 100 mm x 200 mm wooden
joists spaced at 300mm on centers with an effective
span of 3m. The total floor load transmitted to the
joists is 2.5kPa. If the unit weight of wood is 7 kN/m³
and elastic modulus of wood is 12x103 MPa.
(a) Determine the maximum bending stress (fp).
(b) Determine the maximum shearing stress (fy).
(c) Determine the maximum deflection (8maximum).
