The built-up beam wooden åbövé is sub) shown. Assume that the beam dimensions are drawn to scale. Also assume that the nails attaching the three pieces of the cross-section allow it to act as a single member. Which of the following best explains why we cannot analyze the shear stresses in this beam with the techniques covered in this class (at least, so far)? The shear force is not "transverse" O Wood cannot be loaded perpendicular to the grain The shear force is not acting along a line of symmetry of the cross-section

Question

Transcribed Image Text:The built-up beam wooden above is subjected to a horizontal shear force, V, as
shown. Assume that the beam dimensions are drawn to scale. Also assume that the
nails attaching the three pieces of the cross-section allow it to act as a single
member.
Which of the following best explains why we cannot analyze the shear stresses in
this beam with the techniques covered in this class (at least, so far)?
The shear force is not "transverse"
O Wood cannot be loaded perpendicular to the grain
The shear force is not acting along a line of symmetry of the cross-section
We can only deal with vertical shear forces
