Step 3 edit



The parallel axis theorem gives us the following

 

  being the moment about the neutral axis

Solving for the moment of inertia about the neutral axis, we find

 

Since there are two sections and   the moment of inertia of the two sections about the neutral axis is

Problem 5.4 edit

P4.16, Beer 2012

Problem Statement edit


The beam shown is made of a nylon for which the allowable stress is 24 MPa in tension and 30 MPa in compression.

 

Objective edit


Determine the largest couple M that can be applied to the beam for  

Givens edit

 

b = 40mm
s = 15mm
d = 30mm
h = d-s = 15mm
t = 20mm
 =?
 =?







Solution edit


Step 1 edit

In order to find the Neutral Axis, we must find the centroid of the T-shape cross-section

 

Step 2 edit

Now We solve for  

 

Step 3 edit

Now we must solve for the Moment of Inertia of the T Shape:
 

 

Step 4 edit

We can calculate the maximum tensile strength, given that our maximum compression stress is 30Mpa.
 

Step 5 edit

Since  , the maximum stress is seen through compression. Therefore, we will use that compression stress in the elastic flexural formula:

 

Step 6 edit

Therefore, the largest couple moment that can be applied to the beam is as follows:

Problem 5.5 edit

P4.20, Beer 2012

Problem Statement edit


The extruded beam shown has allowable stress is 120 MPa in tension and 150 MPa in compression.
 

Objective edit


Determine the largest couple M that can be applied.

Solution edit

Step 1 edit

The centroid of a trapezoid is given by

 
where a = 80 mm, b = 40 mm, and h = 54 mm

so

 

Step 2 edit

Splitting the trapezoid into 2 triangles and a rectangle we can find the Moment of inertia of the trapezoid by

summing the individual moments of inertia.

Step 3 edit

The moment of inertia of the triangle is given by:

 

The Area of the triangle is:

 

centroid of a triangle is : y =  

so dy = 36mm - 30mm = 6mm

Step 4 edit

The moment of inertia of the rectangle is given by:

 

The Area of the rectangle is:

 

the centroid of a rectangle is the center so y = 27 mm

so dy = 30 mm - 27 mm = 3 mm

Step 5 edit

 

 

Step 6 edit

Applying the Elastic fexural formula to get:


 

Looking at the bottom half of the beam gives us c = 30 mm and  

 

Looking at the top half of the beam gives us c = 24 mm and  

 

The larges couple M is felt by the bottom half
