Question: A 1 8 - meter long beam - tank assembly supports the loading shown in addition to its weight, which is a uniform distributed load

A 18-meter long beam-tank assembly supports the loading shown in addition to its weight, which is a uniform distributed load of 5.5 kN per meter. The beam has integrated into it a cylindrical tank, and the cross-section details for the beam-tank assembly are shown on the next page.
The tank has an outer diameter of 70 mm and an inner diameter of 66 mm . The substance inside the tank has a gage pressure of 1234 kPa .
The pin in the pin-connection is located 70 mm up from the bottom of the beam.
Determine the internal forces (V,N,&M) at the centroid of a section taken 7 meters to the right of the left end of the beam (4 meters to the right of point "A").
Using the cross section shown on the next page, on section d-d that is 7 meters to the right of the left end of the bearm (4 meters to the right of point "A"),
(a) What is the hoop stress at point " D "?
(b) The ends of the tank are closed; what is the longitudinal stress at point "D"
(c) Determine the stress state at point "D'' that is located on the outer edge of the tank (shown below).(sigma ?x, sigma ?y, tau ?xy)
(d) Draw this stress state on a volume element.
