A simple beam AB of span length L = 24ft is subjected to two wheel loads acting

Question:

A simple beam AB of span length L = 24ft is subjected to two wheel loads acting at distance = 5 ft apart (see figure). Each wheel transmits a load P = 3.0 k, and the carriage may occupy any position on the beam.
Determine the maximum bending stress σ max due to the wheel loads if the beam is an I-beam having section modulus S = 16.2 in.3
