Two uniformly distributed loads of w = 3500 lb/ftact on the simply supported beam shown in Figure A. The beam spans are a = 7.3 ft and L = 18.0 ft. The beam cross section shown in Figure B has dimensions of b₁ = 16.25 in., d₁ = 5.50 in., b₂ = 9.00 in., and d₂ = 11.75 in. Calculate the maximum tensile and compressive bending stresses produced in segment BC of the beam. A W a FIGURE A FIGURE B otensile = compressive = d₁ d₂ B i IN MI L b₁ b₂ C W a psi psi D X
