Consider the constant thickness (2 mm)80 mm x 40 mm offset-I section shown in figure below, with an applied vertical shear force Sy=10kN through the shear centre.(a) Determine the shear flow in the horizontal flange ABC and hence the shear stress values at the point B. Note: work your way in from the ends (A and C) of the flange towards the web intersection B, there will be two values of shear stress at B, one for just to right of junction and another for just to left of junction. (8)(b) What is the net horizontal shear force in the segments AB and BC (indicate value and direction as +x or -x)(4)(c) From (b), what is the net horizontal force on ABC? How can this be non-zero thoughthere is no Sx applied?(4) AByC 801030x
