loaded, with a span of 75 cm is
required to carry a proof load of
7.5 kN and the central deflection is
not to exceed 5 cm. The bending
stress must not be greater than
400MN/m^2. Plates are available in
multiples of 4mm for width.
Assuming width to be twelve times
the thickness and E= 200 GN/m^2.
determine suitable values for the
thickness width and number of
plates and the radius to which the
plates should be formed.
