p9.9 The wooden beam shown in Figure P9.9a supports loads

w = 470 lb/ft and P = 1,000 lb on span lengths L AB = 10 ft, L BC = 5 ft,

and L CD = 5 ft. The beam cross section shown in Figure P9.9b has

dimensions b 1 = 1.5 in., d 1 = 6.0 in., b 2 = 5.0 in., and d 2 = 16.0 in.

Determine the magnitude and location of

(a) the maximum horizontal shear stress in the beam.

(b) the maximum tensile bending stress in the beam.

p9.8 The simply supported wooden beam shown in Figure P9.8a

carries a uniformly distributed load w = 780 lb/ft, as shown in

Figure P9.8a, where L AB = 8 ft and L BC = 16 ft. The cross-sectional

dimensions of the beam, as shown in Figure P9.8b, are b = 6 in.,

d = 20 in., y H = 5 in., and y K = 7 in. Section a–a is located at x = 4 ft

from A.

point H in section a–a.

(b) Determine the magnitude of the shear stress in the beam at

point K in section a–a.

(c) If the allowable shear stress for the wood is 150 psi, what is

the largest distributed load w that can be supported by the

beam?

p9.10 For the wooden beam shown in Figure P9.10a, assume

that L = 1.2 m and P = 12 kN. The beam cross section shown in

Figure P9.10b has dimensions b = 50 mm and d = 250 mm.

(a) Determine the maximum horizontal shear stress in the beam.

(b) If the allowable shear stress for the wood is 850 kPa, what is

the minimum width b that is acceptable for this beam?
