Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A beam has a triangular loading on its length. Calculate the maximum bending stress if the beam supports a maximum bending moment of 1500 in-lb.

💡 Hint: Remember you may need to calculate the moment of inertia first depending on the shape.

Question 2

Two beams with different moments of inertia are subjected to the same bending moment. Discuss how the bending stress varies between them.

💡 Hint: Use the bending stress equation and compare the values.
