Textbook Question
Chapter 17, Problem 17.32SP
A 4-in.-by-8-in. (S4S) Douglas fir timber beam is supported on a 16-ft simple span and is subjected to the loads shown. The uniformly distributed line load does not include the weight of the beam (the beam weight. a gravity load, should be considered). Find the maximum tensile and compressive stresses.

A steel beam of I cross-section is simply supported on a span of 4m. Find the safe uniformly distributed load the beam can carry if the tensile stress is not to exceed 26 N/mm2. Also find the maximum compressive stress.
A beam of rectangular cross-section is 64 mm broad, 100 mm deep, and 1.6 m long. It is simply supported at each end and carries a concentrated load of 10 kN at its mid-length. Neglecting the weight of the beam, find the maximum stress in the material.
Calculate the end bearing length (in.) required for a 10-in.-by-16-in. timber beam (dressed) that is supported on a reinforced concrete wall as shown. The beam reaction is 18,000 lb and the allowable compressive stress perpendicular to the grain for the timer member is 400 psi. (Unit: in.)
