Problem Set 2: A 5-m overhanging wide flange beam carries a uniformly distributed loaded of intensity wo as shown in the figure. If the allowable flexural stress is limited to 90 MPa, determine the maximum allowable value of wo 300mm Wo 200mm C B 5m 2m 25mm 20mm 125mm
A rigid, uniform, weightless, horizontal bar is connected to three vertical members P, Q and R as shown in the figure (not drawn to the scale). All three members have identical axial stiffness of 10 kN/mm. The lower end of bars P and R rest on a rigid horizontal surface. When NO load is applied, a gap of 2 mm exists between the lower end of the bar Q and the rigid horizontal surface. When a vertical load W is placed on the horizontal bar in the downward direction, the bar still remains horizontal and gets displaced by 5 mm in the vertically downward direction.
