NOMINAL STRESSES IN BEAMS 1. A simply supported beam is 60 in. long and carries a 5,000 lb. vertical load at the center, solid rectangular section of b = 4", h = 6". To be done: R 30" 5,000 lb. RECTANGULAR BEAM, 6.86 lb./in. 60"* 18" B A. Find the Moment at section B of the bar due to the 5,000 dead load. B. Find the bending moment due to the uniform weight of the bar. C. Compute for the total maximum bending moment at section B, in in-lb. D. Solve for the maximum bending Stress at topmost fiber of section B, in psi. E. Solve for the vertical shearing load at section B due to the 5,000 dead load, in lb. F. Find the vertical shearing load at section B due to the uniform Bar weight, in lb. G. Find the maximum transverse shear along the neutral plane of the bar, in psi. R2 I
