Simply supported beams are usually used in structures due to their high stability and performance in resisting shear stress and bending moment, they are applied in variety of applications such as steel-frame used for advertisement cars’ chassis and bridges. Your role in a structure design company is to analyze and design the bridge based on simply supported beam theory. Your manager asked you to calculate the distribution of shear force, bending moment and stress due to bending for bridge modeled as simply supported beam shown in the Figure.1, this task is best achieved by performing the following required steps: 200 kN 40 kN/m • z (m) 2.5 Figure.1: Simply supported beam Your tasks are as follows: 1) Calculate the maximum stress due to bending moment for a rectangular cross section having a width of 10 mm and height of 40 mm.
