How to find maximum load on steel sqare tube

AI Thread Summary
Determining the maximum load on a steel square tube with one fixed end and a free end involves complex calculations that consider the load application, structural connections, and material properties. The specific dimensions provided, including the length of the beam and the location of the load, are critical for accurate analysis. Safety and liability concerns prevent a straightforward answer without detailed structural information and context. The discussion emphasizes the importance of understanding the purpose of the structure and the materials involved. Ultimately, the thread concludes that without sufficient details, it is not possible to provide a reliable calculation method for the maximum load.

TL;DR Summary
how to find a maximum load on a steel square tube that has one fixed end to the wall and another end is hanging free
how to find a maximum load on a steel square tube that has one fixed end to the wall and another end is hanging free.
suppose the beam is 2230 mm long and the load is applied on the beam on the free end w= 1040 mm. but there also a steel square tube that welded to the middle of the beam and has a fixed endpoint point to the wall

I can't upload a picture but its look like this III is the area where load will be apply (w), .. is steel square tube. ..
. ..
. .. IIIIIIII

What is the purpose of this structure? And can you do any better with the description or upload a photo? It is pretty vague.
 
I just want to know the maximum load of it, maybe with the factor of safety =2

We need to know what this is for. What you are asking is not simple, and the structure you've drawn is beefy enough that we have to be concerned with safety and liability issues in discussing it. How the load is applied, how the elements are attached to each other matter and what the wall (?) is made of matter, for example.
 
I have just been asked to find the maximum load of the structure. the section that I draw is the base which will attach with another part. but the load is just the weight of the structure that will be weld to it again.

Sorry, but that is not sufficient. We cannot answer/publicly discuss this question.
 
I mean it's not HW but at least can you guide me on how to calculate for its, or that least which method should be used to solve this. it's not truss right?
 
we do not suppose to use the truss method right?
 
This thread is locked because we cannot verify the safety of the structure.
