Design a timber beam (rough cut) made from eastern white pine for the given load in the
figure below

Transcribed Image Text:**Homework Assignment**
2. **Task:** Design a timber beam (rough cut) made from eastern white pine for the given load in the figure below.
**Diagram Explanation:**
- The diagram is a simplified structural representation showing a beam labeled from point A to point B.
- The length of the beam from point A to point B is 16 feet (16'-0").
- There is a uniformly distributed load on the beam with a magnitude of 700 pounds per foot (lbs/ft).
- Arrows pointing downward along the beam indicate the direction and type of the load applied evenly across the entire span.
The task involves calculating and designing an appropriate timber beam that can support the specified load while taking into consideration material properties of eastern white pine.
