BENDING STRESSES

Q.1 Find out stresses at points A and B for the loading arrangement shown below.

σ −M −E
Q.2 Establish the relationship, = = for pure bending.

Q.3 There are two shafts of equal weight and length. Find out the ratio of their section moduli if one
shaft is hollow while the other one is solid.

Q4. The 40-mm-diameter shaft carries a uniformly distributed load of intensity w o over half of its span.
The self-aligning bearings at A and C act as simple supports. Find the largest allowable value of w o if the
bending stress in the shaft is limited to 60MPa.

beam if the working stress in bending is 120 MPa. Also calculate the actual maximum bending stress in
each beam.

Q.7 A simply supported wood beam AB is loaded as shown below. Calculate the maximum bending
stress due to the load if the beam has a rectangular cross section with width b=140 mm and height h=
240 mm.

Q.8 Determine the maximum tensile stress and maximum compressive stress due to the load acting on
the simple beam (see figure below). Data are as follows:

b =80 mm, t = 25 mm, h = 120 mm, and h1 = 90 mm.

Q.9 A cantilever beam AB with a rectangular cross section has a longitudinal hole drilled throughout its
length as shown below. The beam supports a load P=600N. The cross section is 25 mm wide and 50 mm
high, and the hole has a diameter of 10 mm. Find the bending stresses at the top of the beam, at the
top of the hole, and at the bottom of the beam.

Q.10 A simple beam of length L= 5 m carries a uniform load of intensity q=5.8 kN/m and a concentrated
load of 22.5 kN as shown below. Assuming σallowable = 110 MPa, calculate the required section modulus.
