Question: Example 2 A timber beam 1 0 0 m m wide by 1 5 0 m m deep is to be strengthened by two plates

Example 2
A timber beam 100mm wide by 150mm deep is to be strengthened by two plates 100mm12mm and 100mm6mm. The thicker plate is sealed to the top surface and thinner plate to the lower surface as shown in the figure. The maximum permissible stress in steel is 120MPa& the value of modular ratio is 20. Calculate moment of resistance of strengthened section. Also calculate maximum stress in timber.
