Question

Could anyone please help me out with this problem?

Problem 3. A beam with profile L 203x1 52x25.4 is fixed at the far end of L-shaped section in figure l·The beam is 3.0 meters in length and supports a load of 15 kN at its free end. The load is applied on the section centroid with a direction -0.6j+0.8k E- 200GPa. Determine: the neutral axis direction, . ANS: = degrees (w/ respect to positive z-axis). b) maximum tensile stress . and compressive stress max on the beam. ANS: .ax- MPa max A-8390 mm, 1,-33.7x106 m ; 1,-16. 1x 106 min. ; Izv = 13.4083 × 106 mm: t = 25.4 mm (thickness); c 419 mm ; Section properties: d 67.3 mm Figure 1. L-profile

Explanation / Answer

Fz = 0.8 x 15 = 12 kN

Fy = -0.6 x 15 = -9 kN

My = 12 x 3 = 36 kNm

Mz = 9 x 3 = 27 kNm

Neutral axis will pass through the centroid of the L section.

Given section properties,

A = 8390 mm2

Iz = 33.7 x 106 mm4

Iy = 16.1 x 106 mm4

Izy = 13.4083 x 106 mm4

Thickness = 25.4 mm

Distance of centroid from left end = 41.9 mm

Distance of centroid from bottom = 67.3 mm

a) Angle of neutral axis with respect to positive z-axis = tan-1(- (My Izz / Mz Iyy)

= tan-1( -(36 x 33.7 x 106) / (27 x 13.4083 x 106)

= -73.3850

b) The region above the neutral axis will be in tension and region below the neutral axis will be in compression.

Maximum tensile stress will be at (z,y) : (41.9mm, 137.5mm)

Maximum value of tensile stress = Mz x 0.1375 / Izz - My x 0.0419 / Iyy

= (27 x 1000 x 0.1375 / 33.7 x 106 x 10-12 ) - (36 x 1000 x 0.0419 / 16.1 x 106 x 10-12 )

= 16.474 MPa

Maximum compressive stress will be at (z,y) : (41.9mm, -67.3mm)

Maximum value of tensile stress = Mz x 0.0673 / Izz + My x 0.0419 / Iyy

= (27 x 1000 x 0.0673 / 33.7 x 106 x 10-12 ) + (36 x 1000 x 0.0419 / 16.1 x 106 x 10-12 )

= 147.61 MPa
