Problem 1004 | Increase in moment capacity due to aluminum plate reinforcement
Problem 1004
Repeat Problem 1002 assuming that the reinforcement consists of aluminum plates for which the allowable stress is 80 MPa. Use n = 5.
increase in moment
Problem 1002 | Increase in moment capacity due to steel plate reinforcement
Problem 1002
A timber beam is reinforced with steel plates rigidly attached at the top and bottom as shown in Fig. P-1002. By what amount is moment increased by the reinforcement if n = 15 and the allowable stresses in the wood and steel are 8 MPa and 120 MPa, respectively?
