A masonry terrace of 75 mm concrete surface with 25 mm cement tiles rests on a 75mm×200mm lumber spaced @300mm on centers acting as simple beam with an effective span of 3.6 m. Weight of wood is 7.5 kN/m3 and masonry to be 24kN/m3. Ew=1300 mPa. The allowable stresses are 14 mPa for bending, 0.80 mPa for shear parallel to grain and deflection is 1/360 of span. What is maximum superimposed load that can be carried by the beam?

Question

A masonry terrace of 75 mm concrete surface with 25 mm cement tiles rests on a 75mm×200mm lumber spaced @300mm on centers acting as simple beam with an effective span of 3.6 m. Weight of wood is 7.5 kN/m³ and masonry to be 24kN/m³^. Ew=1300 mPa. The allowable stresses are 14 mPa for bending, 0.80 mPa for shear parallel to grain and deflection is 1/360 of span. What is maximum superimposed load that can be carried by the beam?
