Question: A 4 . 5 9 m long 1 0 0 . 0 mm - by - 3 0 9 . 9 mm , solid rectangular

A 4.59m long 100.0 mm -by-309.9mm, solid rectangular cantilever wooden beam is carrying a uniformly distributed load w(see Fig below), with a mean load intensity of w=2.6kNm and a COV of W=0.15. The material is structural-grade redwood with a rated average yield strength (parallel to grain under bending) of y=28.58Nmm2 and COVy=0.20. Assume log-normal distributions for w and y. The resistance and load affect basic variables are independent.
Determine the probability (expressed as a % to 1 dp ) that the maximum extreme fibre stress in the beam will exceed the tensile yield strength of the wood.
