A cantilever beam with a ‘T’ shaped cross-section is loaded with a distributed load as shown below.The intensity of the distributed load is 100N/mm. b = 6.25mm and c=6.25mm.Parameter Description Value UnitsL - Beam length 250 mma - Width of the flange 80 mmd - Height of the web 75 mmσ - Yield stress 250 MPaYou are tasked with ensuring the beam can withstand the applied loading. To do this you must:a) Calculate the centroid for the given cross-section. Your value of ?ത should be measured fromthe bottom of the section. Determine an expression for Q (statical moment of area) for thegiven shape. The expression(s) for Q should be in terms of the variable, y, measured from thebottom of the section. b) Create a graph of the shear and bending stresses at the fixed support (B) over the crosssection. The stresses should be plotted as a function of y, measured from the bottom of thesection.
