Question: A beam segment subjected to internal bending moments at sections A and B is shown along with a sketch of the cross - sectional dimensions.

A beam segment subjected to internal bending moments at sections A and B is shown along with a sketch of the cross-sectional
dimensions. The beam segment is subjected to internal bending moments of MA=1790lb*ft and MB=710lb*ft. The segment length is
x=5.4in. Consider area (1) and use cross-sectional dimensions of b=3.7in.,d=11.1in., and d1=1.9in.
(a) sketch a side view of the beam segment and plot the distribution of bending stresses acting at sections A and B. Indicate the
magnitudes of key bending stresses on the sketch.
(b) determine the resultant forces acting in the x direction on the specified area at sections A and B, and show these resultant forces on
the sketch.
(c) determine the horizontal force required to satisfy equilibrium for the specified area and show the location and direction of this
force on the sketch.
