A steel beam is 200 mm wide and 300 mm deep. The beam is simply supported and carries a concentrated load w. If the maximum stress are 2 N/mm2. What will be the corresponding load?

A steel beam is 200 mm wide and 300 mm deep. The beam is simply supported and carries a concentrated load w. If the maximum stress are 2 N/mm2. What will be the corresponding load? Correct Answer 80 kN

For a rectangular cross section Max. Shear stress = 3/2 2 = 3/2 . w = 80 kN.
