Problem 1010 and Problem 1011 | Investigation of timber reinforced by two steel channels

Problem 1010
A pair of C250 × 30 steel channels are securely bolted to wood beam 200 mm by 254 mm, as shown in Fig. P-1010. From Table B-2 in Appendix B, the depth of the channel is also 254 mm.) If bending occurs about the axis 1-1, determine the safe resisting moment if the allowable stresses σs = 120 MPa and σw = 8 MPa. Assume n = 20.

Problem 1011
In Problem 1010, determine the safe resisting moment if bending occurs about axis 2-2.
