The cantilever beam shown is subjected to a concentrated load of P. The cross-sectional dimensions of the wide-flange shape are also shown, where bf = 7.00 in., d = 14.0 in., tf = 0.475 in., tw = 0.350 in. (a) Compute the value of Q that is associated with point K, which is located yk = 3.5 in. above the centroid of the wide-flange shape. (b) If the allowable shear stress for the wide-flange shape is τallow= 13 ksi, determine the maximum concentrated load P than can be applied to the cantilever beam. Determine the moment of inertia Iz1 for the top flange (1) about the z centroidal axis of the cross-section. Answer: Iz1 = in.4. Determine the moment of inertia Iz2 for the bottom flange (2) about the z centroidal axis of the cross-section. Answer: Iz2 = in.4. Determine the moment of inertia Iz3 for the web (3) about the z centroidal axis of the cross-section. Note that the centroid of the web is also the centroid of the cross-section. Answer: Iz3 = in.4.
