Question
Assume that, due to a construction error, the beam of the previous two examples was placed incorrectly in the field and the small dimension (7 ½ in. dressed) was oriented vertically. For the same span length and loading, calculate the maximum bending stress that would be developed.
Example 1: A beam with a cross section of 6 in. x 12 in. is subjected to a bending moment M of 24 kip.ft.
Example 2: The timber member of Example 1 is used as a simply supported beam on a 16-ft span carrying a uniformly distributed line load of 400 lb/ft as shown below.
