Question: Overall component setup F 1 = 1 5 0 N F 2 = 1 3 0 N L 1 = 6 0 m m L

Overall component setup
F1=150N
F2=130N
L1=60mm
L2=250mm
L3=150mm
Beam cross-section
b=20mm
h=16mm
t=3mm
An idealised model of a beam component is shown above. The component ABCD is loaded via a
force F1 at B and a force F2 at D. The component is connected by a pin joint at A and a roller support
at C to other components that are modelled and shown as rigid 'ground'. The beam component's
cross section is shown as well.
Determine the position and magnitude of the maximum bending stress in the component, including
reaction forces, moment diagram, centroid, and second moment of area.
Tip: you can use symmetries to argue the position of centroids if applicable.
