Problem 4: The beam shown is 4-ft long and 0.1-ft wide. The beam is carrying a distributed pressure T that varies as a function of length such that T=6x¹/² in kip/ft², where x starts from point A. End B is supported by a vertical cable connected to a 1/4 inch thick steel plate that is embedded in a concrete block as shown. The cable hole in the plate has a diameter d=3 inch. The steel plate's yield strength capacity is 36 ksi and the bonding stress between concrete and steel is 0.25 ksi. ● Determine the reactions at A and the force in the cable B Determine the required width "a" of the plate and its minimum depth "b". Use a factor of safety SF=3.5. ●

Transcribed Image Text:Problem 4:
The beam shown is 4-ft long and 0.1-ft wide. The beam is carrying a distributed pressure T that
varies as a function of length such that T=6x¹/² in kip/ft2, where x starts from point A.
End B is supported by a vertical cable connected to a 1/4 inch thick steel plate that is embedded
in a concrete block as shown. The cable hole in the plate has a diameter d=3 inch. The steel
plate's yield strength capacity is 36 ksi and the bonding stress between concrete and steel is
0.25 ksi.
Determine the reactions at A and the force in the cable B
Determine the required width "a" of the plate and its minimum depth "b". Use a
factor of safety SF=3.5.
