The T-shaped beam shown above is supporting a concentrated load P at its free end. The beam
has an allowable bending stress of allow = 250 MPa and an allowable shear stress of Tallow=
100 MPa.
a) Determine the distance to the neutral axis (y), second moment of area (I), and the section
modulus (S) of the cross-section.
b) Draw the shear force diagram (SFD) and bending moment diagram (BMD) of the beam. On
your diagrams, express the values of shear and moment in terms of the applied load P.
c) Determine the maximum value of P such that bending failure will not occur.
d) Determine the maximum value of P such that shear failure will not occur.
e) Based on your answers to (c) and (d), what is the maximum load P that can be applied to the
beam? Is this beam bending or shear governed?
