2. (10 points) The stiffener has the shape shown in the figure.

2. (10 points) The stiffener has the shape shown in the figure. Note that the location of the centroid, C, is given, as are the moments and product of inertia (you do not need to compute these!). The beam is loaded by a bending moment resultant about the horizontal axis, M, of 50 kip-in, as shown in the sketch. There is no moment resultant about the vertical axis. a) (4 pts) Determine the orientation of the neutral axis, o, and draw the neutral axis on the sketch below. b) (6 pts) Determine the maximum compression stress on the cross-section. Report both a numerical value of the stress, and state clearly where this maximum stress is found. 0.75 in. y 1.08 in. M = 60 kip in. 2.08 in. 6 in. -0.75 in. 4 in. A I = 8.7 in I = 24.5 in Iyz = +8.3 in
