Question

Knowing that the allowable normal stress for the steel used is 174 MPa, determine the section modulus and select the most economical S-shaped beam to support the loading shown using the table given.

 

### Problem 13

**Objective:**
Determine the section modulus and select the most economical S-shaped beam to support the given loading conditions.

**Given:**
- Allowable normal stress for the steel: 174 MPa.

**Diagram:**
- A beam is supported at points A and D.
- A concentrated load of 80 kN is applied at point B.
- A uniformly distributed load of 30 kN/m extends from point C to point D.
- Distances:
  - A to B: 0.9 m
  - B to C: 1.8 m (spanning two sections)
  - Total span (A to D): 3.6 m

**Table of S-shaped Beams:**
| Shape      | S (10³ mm³) |
|------------|-------------|
| S510 × 98.2| 1950        |
| S380 × 64  | 973         |
| S310 × 47.3| 593         |
| S250 × 52  | 482         |

**Tasks:**
1. Calculate the required section modulus.
2. Choose the most economical beam from the table.

**Solution:**
- The section modulus required is not filled in.
- The most economical S-shaped beam based on the given options is **S310 × 47.3**.
