Solve the following problem of a steel tensile plate with a concentrated load applied at the top, as shown in Figure P7–14. Determine at what depth the effect of the load dies out. Plot stress σy versus distance from the load. At distances of 1 in., 2 in., 4 in., 6 in., 10 in., 15 in., 20 in., and 30 in. from the load, list σy versus these distances. Let the
width of the plate be b = 4 in., thickness of the plate be t = 0.25 in., and length be L = 40 in. Look up the concept of St. Venant’s principle to see how it explains the stress behavior in this problem.
