The composite beam shown in the figure is simply supported and carries a total uniform load of 50 kN/m on a span of 4.0 m. The bearn is built of a wood membe having cross sectional dimensions 150 mm x 250 mm and two steel plates of cross-sectional dimensions 150 mm x 50 mm. Determine the maximum stresses, in the steel and wood, respectively. If the moduli of elasticity are E {s} = 209GPA and E {w} = 11GPa (Disregard the weight of the beam)

Transcribed Image Text:The composite beam shown in the figure is simply
supported and carries a total uniform load of 50 kN/m
on a span of 4.0 m. The bearn is built of a wood member
having cross sectional dimensions 150 mm x 250 mm
and two steel plates of cross-sectional dimensions 150
mm x 50 mm. Determine the maximum stresses,
in the steel and wood, respectively. If the moduli of
elasticity are E {s} = 209GPA and E {w} = 11GPA
(Disregard the weight of the beam)
