Question: An overhanging beam ABC with a guided support at A is of rectangular cross section and supports concentrated loads P both at A and at

An overhanging beam ABC with a guided support at A is of rectangular cross section and supports concentrated loads P both at A and at the free end C (see figure). The span length from A to B is L, and the length of the overhang is L/2. The cross section has width b and height h. Point D is located midway between the supports at a distance d from the top face of the beam.
Knowing that the maximum tensile stress (principal stress) at point D is (1 = 35 MPa. determine the magnitude of the load P. Data for the beam are as follows: L = 1.75 m, b = 50 mm, h = 200 mm, and d = 40 mm?
