Question: The simply - supported beam shown below ( length L = 5 9 7 . 5 m m ) has a U - channel cross

The simply-supported beam shown below (length L=597.5mm) has a U-
channel cross-section with the following properties:
w=60mm,h=12.5mm,tf=1.5mm,tw=0.25mm
A=51.8mm2,Iz=y2dA=876mm4, and Iy=z2dA=35949mm4
Additionally, xG=0mm, and yG=-1.69mm, with respect to the nominal
center of the section.
If the beam is subjected to a uniform distributed load of q=-0.20hat(j)+0.10hat(k)
Nmm, what is the largest magnitude principal stress, 1 or 2, in the material
(in units of MPa), expressed as a positive number?
The simply - supported beam shown below ( length
