2. A simple beam AB of span length L = 22 ft supports a uniform load of intensity w = 1.5 k/ft and a concentrated load P = 12 k. The beam is constructed of glued laminated wood with width b = 8.75 in. and depth d= 27 in. The uniform load w includes the weight of the beam. Determine the maximum tensile and compressive stresses in the beam due to bending (state the location of the maximum tensile and compressive stresses). Ans. 1716 psi, -1716 psi 5 P = 12 k -9 ft + 22 ft w = 1.5 k/ft B d = 27 in. b= 8.75 in.
