The beam is simply supported by a hinge pin at either end of the 6m length. The load is also variable point so max bending will occur at 3m. What is the equation that relates allowable stress, bending stress and 'w'? I am not sure I have used any equations in the past that relate all 3. Thanks...
Hi there,
I have a problem regarding a simply supported C-section steel beam that I can't seem to get my head around.
The beam is 6m long and supports a 15 Ton moving point load, the tensile yield strength of the steel is known and the structure must have a factor of safety of 3. The...
