(20) Given a fixed support timber beam with a rectangular cross-section shown below, subjected to bending due to a 625lb load at the cantilevered end with a maximum moment of 30,000lb-in., and an allowable (not to exceed) bending stress of 250ksi.
a. Draw the complete free body diagram of the system.
b. Will a beam ABC with the same cross-sectional dimensions throughout of 25 inches (b=2 in. and h=5 in.) be suitable? Show your work.
c. What is the normal (axial strain) between the 1ft section AB assuming the timber is Red Pine with an elastic modulus of 1630ksi ?
