Timber beams are widely used in home construction. When the load (measured in pounds) per unit length

Question:

Timber beams are widely used in home construction. When the load (measured in pounds) per unit length has a constant value over part of a beam the load is said to be uniformly distributed over that part of the beam. Uniformly distributed beam loads were used to derive the stiffness distribution of the beam in the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Journal (May, 2013). Consider a cantilever beam with a uniformly distributed load between 100 and 115 pounds per linear foot. Find a value L such that the probability that the beam load exceeds L is only .1.
