Question: An I - beam has a flange width ( b = 4 0 0 mathrm { ~mm } ) , height

An I-beam has a flange width \( b=400\mathrm{~mm}\), height \( h=400\mathrm{~mm}\), web thickness \( t_{w}=13\mathrm{~mm}\), and flange thickness \( t_{f}=21\mathrm{~mm}\). Use the following steps to calculate the shear stress at a point 100 mm above the neutral axis.
Part A - Moment of inertia
The shear formula includes the moment of inertia of the whole cross section, \( I \), about the neutral axis. Calculate the moment of inertia. Express your answer with appropriate units to three significant figures.

Part B - Q for the given point
The shear stress 100 mm above the neutral axis depends on the value of \( Q \) for the area above that point. Calculate the value of \( Q \). Express your answer with appropriate units to three significant figures.
