A wood specimen was subjected to bending until failure by applying a load inthe middle of its span. The specimen has a cross section of 25 mm * 25 mm(actual dimensions) and a span of 350 mm between the simple supports. Theload and the deflection in the middle of the span were recorded as shown inTable P10.22.a. Using a computer spreadsheet program, plot the load–deflectionrelationship.b. Plot the proportional limit on the graph.c. Calculate the modulus of rupture (flexure strength).
A wood specimen having a square cross section of 2-inch x 2-inch (actual dimensions) was tested in bending by applying a load at the middle of the span, where the span between the simple supports was 28 inches.  The deflection under the load was measured (see below).  Plot the load versus deflection relationship.  Identify the proportional limit on the diagram.  Calculate the modulus of rupture.  Does the modulus of rupture truly represent the extreme fiber stresses in the specimen?  Comment on the assumptions used to compute the modulus of rupture and the actual response of the wood specimen
A wood specimen was subjected to bending until failure by applying a loadin the middle of its span. The specimen has a cross section of 1 in. * 1 in.(actual dimensions) and a span of 14 in. between the simple supports. Theload and the deflection in the middle of the span were recorded as shown inTable P10.22.a. Using a computer spreadsheet program, plot the load–deflectionrelationship.b. Plot the proportional limit on the graph.c. Calculate the modulus of rupture (flexure strength).
