5 MECHANICS OF MATERIAL-II
A beam is the structural element that primarily resists load
applied literally to the beam axis. Its mode of deflection is
primarily by bending. The load applied to the beam results in
the reaction forces at the beam support points.
6. OBJECTIVES
6 MECHANICS OF MATERIAL-II
The main objective is to find;
Different stresses under complete
analytical calculations.
To find the deflection and slope in a
beam.

ASSUMPTIONS
oAll the beams are simply supported beams.
oAll the loads above the first floor are
directly transmitted to ground via columns.
oAll the active loads (student loads) are per
day based.
oTreating the entire beam as a rigid body,
determine the reaction forces.

This is the cross-section of the beam;
As seen in the cross-section the beam is made up of
concrete and three steel rods of diameter 5/8 inch.
Concrete beams subjected to bending moments are reinforced by steel rods.
The steel rods carry the entire tensile load below the neutral surface. The
upper part of the concrete beam carries the compressive load. In the
transformed section, the cross sectional area of the steel, As, is replaced by
the equivalent area n As where
n = Es/Ec

Now to calculate the respective stresses in concrete
(compressive) and in steel rods (tensile)
𝜎𝑐 = −𝑀𝑐/𝐼
𝑐 = 𝑥 = 3.75
𝜎𝑐 = − 43291396.05 x3.75/1769.99
𝜎𝑐 = −91.719 𝑘𝑠𝑖(𝐶𝑜𝑚𝑝𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑜𝑛)
And,
𝜎𝑠 = 𝑛𝑀𝑐/𝐼
𝑐 = (𝑑 − 𝑥) = (18 − 3.75) = 14.25 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑛 = 8.06
𝜎𝑠 = 8.06x 43291396.05 x14.25/1769.99

As, 𝜏𝑥𝑦 = 0, 𝜎𝑠 = 2809.187 𝑘𝑠𝑖 and 𝜎𝑐 = −91.719 𝑘𝑠𝑖
The principal stresses 𝜎𝑎 and 𝜎𝑏 are;
𝜎𝑠= 𝜎𝑎 = 2809.187 𝑘𝑠𝑖
𝜎𝑐= 𝜎𝑏 = −91.719 𝑘𝑠𝑖
then for factor of safety we use Torsional criterial for brittle material.

CONCLUSION
From the above calculations it is concluded that the loads acting on
the corridor per day are within the allowable compressive and tensile
strength so the building is safe for the future unless any problems like
Earthquake acted on the beam.
