// Problem 5.1,Page no.121 clc;clear; close; b=100 //mm //width of timber joist d=200 //mm //depth of joist L=3 //m //Length of beam sigma=7 //KN/mm**2 //bending stress w_1=5 //KN/mm**2 //unit weight of timber //Calculations w=0.1*0.2*1*5*100 //N/m //self weight of the joist I_xx=1*12**-1*100*200**3 //mm**4 //M.I of section about N.A //M=W*L+w*L**2*2**-1 //Max Bending moment //Therefore,M=(3*W+450) //using the relation M*I**-1=sigma*y**-1,we get W=(((7*2*10**8)*(100*10**3*3)**-1)-450)*3**-1 //N //Max Load applied //Result printf("The Max value of Load applied is %.2f N",W)
