An aluminum alloy pipe with an outside diameter of 3.1 in. and a wall thickness of 3/16 in. cantilevers upward a distance of L = 12 ft. The pipe is subjected to a wind loading that increases from wA = 8 lb/ft at its base to wB = 12 lb/ft at its tip. (a) Compute the maximum value of Q for the pipe. (b) What is the maximum vertical shear stress in the pipe?
