Question 1
What is the main distinction of Timoshenko Beam Theory from Euler-Bernoulli?
- It ignores shear deformation
- It accounts for shear deformation
- It uses only bending stress
💡 Hint: Consider what effects shear has compared to bending.
Question 2
True or False: In Timoshenko Beam Theory, deflection and rotation are treated independently.
- True
- False
💡 Hint: Think about their relationship in equations.

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
A cantilever beam with a length of 5m is subjected to a point load of 1000N at its free end. Calculate the shear force and bending moment profile along the beam first using Timoshenko Beam Theory.
💡 Hint: Identify shear and bending effects distinctly throughout the beam.
Question 2
A Timoshenko beam with a rectangular cross-section experiences a shear force of 200 N and has a width of 0.1 m and height of 0.2 m. Calculate the average shear stress and compare it to calculated shear strain using the governing equations.
💡 Hint: Remember to apply TBT's unique equations for shear strain!
