Problem 5.1 (Problem in Beer, 2012)[edit | edit source]

On our honor, we did this problem on our own, without looking at the solutions in previous semesters or other online solutions.

Problem Statement[edit | edit source]

Two W4 x 13 rolled sections are welded together. Determine that largest couple that can be applied about the z-axis when the assembly is bent.
The steel alloy used has properties and . Use a safety factor of 3.0.


Obtained from Appendix B in Beer, 2012 are the properties of W4x13 Rolled-steel:
Area, = 3.83 in2
Width, = 4.16 in
Moment of Inertia (with respect of y-axis), = 11.3 in4

Solution[edit | edit source]

Step One: Divide assembly in two[edit | edit source]

The first step towards an easy and straightforward solution is the division of the given assembly at the midplane of the y-axis, parallel to the z-axis. This eases the mathematics involved in the solution, taking advantage of the assembly's inherent symmetry. The division is shown below, where the new plane is called the A-A axis.

Step Two: Solve for moment of inertia about A-A[edit | edit source]

The moment of inertia about A-A is given by Equation 5.1-1, derived from the parallel-axis theorem.

(5.1-1)

where, Ix is the moment of inertia through the centroid with respect to the x-axis and d2 is the square of the distance from the centroid of the shape to the A-A axis. For this particular shape, we can calculate the coordinates of its centroid from symmetry.

Substituting in the values for Ix, A, and d2 into Equation(5.2-1), we obtain




Step Three: Extrapolate simplified solution to the entire assembly[edit | edit source]

The total moment of inertia of both sections together is the sum of the individual moments with respect to the same axis. Thus, for the original shape, the total moment of inertia is


because both sections are identical and symmetrical.

The bending moment, or couple, is given by

(5.1-2)


for which is the maximum allowable stress which is calculated from and the factor of safety using the following equation

(5.1-3)


Returning to Eq. 5.1-2 and substituting in the values for and , which is the width, yields

On our honor, we did this problem on our own, without looking at the solutions in previous semesters or other online solutions.

Two W4 x 13 rolled sections are welded together. Determine that largest couple that can be applied about the z-axis when the assembly is bent.

W4 x 13 welded sections



Obtained from Appendix B in Beer, 2012 are the properties of W4x13 Rolled-steel:
Area, = 3.83 in2
Width, = 4.060 in
Moment of Inertia (with respect of y-axis), = 3.86 in4

Solution[edit | edit source]

The first step in the solution is to realize that this is a symmetrical composite shape, and the shape can be split in two to facilitate the solution process.
It is favorable to divide the shape by some axis that will conveniently make the problem easier to solve. In this case, it will be in the middle, across the z-axis.
The axis A-A across the bottom of the top half now corresponds to this slice along the z-axis.

single rolled section
Here, a new point of reference is assigned.



The next step is to calculate the moment of inertia about this new axis, A-A. This is done using the parallel-axis theorem, given by:

(5.2-1)


where, Iy is the moment of inertia through the centroid of the shape with respect to the y-axis and d2 is the square of the distance from the centroid of the shape to the axis for which the moment of inertia is being taken. For this particular shape, we can calculate the coordinates of its centroid from symmetry.

Substituting in the values for Iy, A, and d2 into Equation(5.2-1), we obtain




Now, the total moment of inertia of both sections together is the sum of the individual moments with respect to the same axis. Thus, for the original shape, the total moment of inertia is


because both sections are identical and symmetrical.

The bending moment, or couple, is given by

(5.2-2)


for which is the maximum allowable stress which is calculated from and the factor of safety using the following equation

(5.2-3)


Returning to Eq. 5.2-2 and substituting in the values for and , which is the width, yields




 

Problem 5.3 (Problem 4.13 in Beer, 2012)[edit | edit source]

On our honor, we did this problem on our own, without looking at the solutions in previous semesters or other online solutions.

Problem Statement[edit | edit source]

Knowing that the beam of the cross section below is bent about the horizontal axis with a bending moment, the total force acting on the shaded portion of the T-beam's web is to be determined.

T-beam for 5.3

Given[edit | edit source]

Area of T-beam's flange (Area 1):

Area of T-beam's web (Area 2):

Bending moment about horizontal axis:

Solution[edit | edit source]

Derivation of Force on Shaded Area of T-beam's Web[edit | edit source]

In order to find the force on the shaded area of the T-beam's web due to the bending moment, the stress distribution must be used, which is given by the bending stress formula:

(5.3-1)


By using a small area element , the force on the shaded region can be calculated by:

(5.3-2)


Which, when integrated, solves for the force we're looking for:

(5.3-3)


where and are the distance of the centroid from the neutral axis and area of the shaded region, respectively.

Location of Centroids and Distance From Neutral Axis for the Flange and Web[edit | edit source]

The T-beam is split up into two distinct rectangles which comprise the area of the flange (top rectangle) and the area of the web (bottom rectangle). The distance of these rectangle's centroids from the neutral axis are therefore:



Calculation of 2nd Moment of Inertia for Beam Cross Section[edit | edit source]

The 2nd moment of inertia for the entire beam cross section can be calculated using the parallel axis theorem,

(5.3-4)


where for a rectangle is:

(5.3-5)


Using (5.3-4) and (5.3-5), the 2nd moment of inertia for the T-beam's flange (top rectangle) can be written as:

(5.3-6)


which gives:


And the 2nd moment of inertia for the T-beam's web (bottom rectangle) can be written as:

(5.3-7)


which gives:


Therefore the total 2nd moment of inertia is the combination of both the flange and web moments:

(5.3-8)


which gives:


Location of Centroid and Area of the Web's Shaded Region[edit | edit source]

The shaded region of the T-beam's web has a width of:



and a height of:



Which means the shaded region has an area of:



The distance of the centroid from the neutral axis is:



Therefore, the product of the shaded region's area and centroid distance from the neutral axis is:


Calculation of Force on Shaded Area of T-beam's Web[edit | edit source]

The force on the shaded region of the T-beam's web can now be calculated using equation (5.3-3) by substituting all relevant values:

(5.3-3)


which gives:


Yielding our final answer,

We can use these to find the neutral axis (centroid) for the entire cross section with this relationship

(5.4-1)


Yielding an answer of

(5.4-2)


Centroidal Moment of Inertia[edit | edit source]

Using the parallel axis theorem, the centroidal moment of inertia can be represented as

(5.4-3)


where for a rectangle is

(5.4-4)


Now, inserting the values for the entire bar

(5.4-5)


(5.4-6)


Stress[edit | edit source]

Because of the direction the bar is being bent due to the applied moment, the top of the beam will undergo compression and the bottom of the bar will undergo tension. So, when calculating the maximum stress due to compression, the distance from the neutral axis to the top of the bar will be used. Likewise, the distance from the neutral axis to the bottom of the bar will be used in the calculation for maximum stress due to tension.

(5.4-7)


This gives us
For tension:

(5.4-8)


Which gives us
The smaller of these two values is our answer.
