The angle shown below is used as a cantilever beam to support an applied eccentric force, P, at the
tip as shown (viewing from the tip towards the fixed end).(1) Compute the principle moments of
inertia, y' and z'. Draw a sketch of the principle axes. (2) Determine the bending normal stress
distribution at the critical section of the beam (i.e., fixed end). Choose enough points to draw the
diagram along the left edge and bottom edge. The length, L, of the beam is 60 inches. (3) What is
the maximum deflection at the tip of the beam and direction? E=29000ksi. Note the coordinate
system-see course site for required equations.
