For the beam shown below, determine the required thickness (h) for a rectangular cross section with a given width of 2 inches (b = 2 in.) using the maximum distortional energy theory. A safety factor of 1.5 is required (n = 1.5) and the shaft is made from steel (Sy = 60 ksi and E = 30 Mpsi). F₂= 1200 lbf F₁ = 800 lbf 24 in. RA 24 in. 48 in. RB
