1. INTRODUCTION

This report presents an analysis of a T-beam subjected to a distributed load


applied along its centerline. The objective is to determine the principal stress at Point A
and illustrate the results on an element located at this point. An analytical stress analysis
is performed, and to verify the accuracy of the results, the ANSYS finite element analysis
(FEA) tool is utilized for numerical validation. By comparing the analytical and
computational results, the study aims to assess the reliability of the analytical approach
in predicting the stress distribution within the T-beam.

2. Analytical Solution

For this beam type, calculate the following analytical results:


a. Deflection under a given load using beam bending formulas (e.g., Euler-Bernoulli
beam theory).
b. Maximum stress using beam bending and shear stress formulas.

The normal stress developed is contributed by bending stress only.For point A,
