A simply supported beam is made of four 50 mm x 150 mm wood planks that are fastened by screws as shown in the cross section below. The beam carries a concentrated load at the middle of its 3.6 m span that causes a maximum bending stress of 9.65 MPa in the wood section. Determine the largest allowable spacing/pitch if the shear strength in each screw is limited to 890 N. O a. 59.02 mm O b. 51.05 mm O c. 64.52 mm O d. 35.66 mm
