Question

A flitched beam comprising a steel plate sandwiched between two timber joists is shown
in fig. Q2. The three components are secured together along their full length. The stress
in timber must not exceed 8 N/mm2 and that in steel must not exceed 150 N/mm2.
Calculate the magnitude of the uniform load that the beam can safely carry when the span
is 5 m. Young’s moduli: steel = 210 kN/mm2; timber = 10.5 kN/mm2.
[88.0 kN]
