Chapter 5, Problem 5.5.27P
A small dam of a height h = 6 ft is constructed of vertical wood beams AB, as shown in the figure. The wood beams, which have a thickness I = 2.5 in., are simply supported by horizontal steel beams at A and Ä Construct a graph showing the maximum bending stress tram in the wood beams versus the depth d of the water above the lower support at B. Plot the stress0mas(psi) as the ordinate and the depth d(ft) as the abscissa. Note: The weight density y of water equals 62.4 lb/ft3.

The cross section of a concrete dam is shown in the figure. Take the weight-density (= pg)
of water to be 10 kN/m³ and that of concrete to be 25 kN/m³. For the given design of the
cross-section, find the ratio h/H that is safe enough for the dam to not tip over (about the
downstream edge E).
Here you will enter the numerical answer. In the handworked file you must show your worked
