Question

Figure Q6b shows a simply supported 3.75 m long beam with a solid round crosssection and a concentrated point load of 250 kN acting at the mid-point of the beam.
If the diameter of the beam cross-section is 165 mm, calculate the maximum tensile
stress [σtensile_max] and the maximum compressive stress [σcompressive_max] experienced
by the beam. Use Ixx = [πr^4/4] for the second moment of area of a round section beam
about its x-x centroid axis. Assume that the weight of the beam is zero and that the
beam section is solid and uniform along its entire length. Give your answer in N/mm2
to 2 decimal places.
