Cauculate the dead load that can be safely supported


A beam has a solid square cross section of 100mm and is simply supported by two supports 3 metres apart. Cauculate the dead load that can be safely supported when applied to the midle of the beam.

sigma = M/Z

M = 3W/4

Z = d^3/6

Sigma = (3W/4) / (d^3/6) now must rearrange the formula to find W and then substitute in the correct values.
