Analysis and Design of Beams for Bending

Design of Prismatic Beams for Bending
Design of Prismatic Beams for Bending
The design process for prismatic beams subjected to bending begins by determining the allowable stress for the chosen material. The allowable stress is ...
Prismatic Beams: Problem Solving
Prismatic Beams: Problem Solving
A simply supported timber beam is to be designed to support a distributed load. The length and width of the beam are known, along with the allowable ...
Singularity Functions for Shear
Singularity Functions for Shear
When considering a beam under continuous loading, the shear force at any point is represented by mathematical functions. However, when the beam ...
