Question: Please answer the next five questions using the following information: A 1 1 ft long cantilever timber beam carries a uniform load of 4 5

Please answer the next five questions using the following information:
A 11 ft long cantilever timber beam carries a uniform load of 450 lbs/ft over its entire span. Design an economical and efficient Douglas Fir Glue Laminated section. The width of the Glue-lam should not exceed 3-1/8".
What is the Vmax value for this beam?
What is the Mmax value for this beam?
What is the maximum deflection (Delta Max) value for this beam?
What would be the required moment of inertia for this beam (Ireq)?
Based on the values of Vmax, Mmax and I req, which of the following glu-laminated section be safe and economical?
What size timber is needed for a 10 ft tall column supporting a load of 6500 lbs.? Use a 4x4 or 4x6 or 6x6 or 6x8 Southern Pine Timber section. E=1,500,000 psi, Fc =1150 psi. Design the most safe, stable and economical section.
What is the value of Allowable Stress (Fa) for the designed column section?
What is the value of "Actual Stress (fa)" for the designed column section?
What is the value of slenderness ratio (L/d) for the designed column section?
