Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A cantilever beam is subjected to a uniform load. Calculate the locations of the neutral axis and the bending stresses at specific points.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Use the relationships between moment, stress, and position from neutral plane.

Question 2

If a beam experiences a bending moment causing a maximum tensile stress of 15000 psi, determine the maximum compressive stress experienced.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the symmetry of stresses in pure bending.
