Question: The built - up T - beam has a fixed end condition with applied loads as shown and has elastic material properties E = 2

The built-up T-beam has a fixed end condition with applied loads as shown and has elastic material properties E=200 GPa, v=0.32. The top flange is secured to the web of the T-beam with tack-fasteners along its length as shown in the cross section diagram. For the given loading, geometry and material properties, determine the following:
A. The maximum normal stress (using the coordinate system provided) that occurs in the beam and normal strain at that location. Make sure you correctly indicate the sign of the stress and strain.
B. The maximum shear stress (using the coordinate system provided) that occurs in the beam and shear strain at that location. Make sure you correctly indicate the sign of the stress and strain.
C. Where in the beam does the highest maximum principal stress occur? Please clearly and completely describe the location in 3D.
