Problems: supplemental problems (8A, etc.) and from Onouye Chapters 9 & 10 Notes: Problems marked with a * have been altered with respect to the problem stated in the text. Multiframe4D or other methods may be used for V & M diagrams and maximums when the method is not specified.
Partial answers to check with:
Partial answers to check with: (CD = 1.33 ) F’ c = 1080 psi, Pa = 76.5 k
supporting a floor is to be a glue-lam member.
most economical member to use assuming a self weight of 10 lb/ft, normal load duration (CD = 1), tabulated stresses of Fb = 2000 psi and Fv = 250 psi, E = 1.7 x 10^6 psi. Calculated and locate the maximum deflection due only to the 400 lb/ft for the member found.
(timber strength design and deflection)
* = 32 lb/ft^3 *allowed (LL+DL) = L/
(timber beam design)
Assume a 7-day live load (construction) duration.
= 18.5
(timber column analysis)
Assume the critical load duration is for one-day live load (wind).
economical ^
*Use superpositioning with the Beam Diagrams and Formulas to get support reactions and to construct the V & M diagrams.
6 x ^
Assume the load duration is normal. For Southern pine dense No.1, E = 1.6 x 10^6 psi, and the tabulated compressive stress parallel to the grain, Fc = 975 psi.
