Shear
Flow in Beams
|
Example: * A shear force, V of 1600
N, acts downward on a beam with T-section formed by gluing the top portion
(200 mm x 50 mm) to the bottom portion (50 mm x 200 mm) as shown below. Find the shear stress in the glue. |
|
Strategy: Identify the area, A’, from
where the shear stress is zero to the location where the shear stress is to be
calculated. i.e. The cross-hatched
area shown below. Evaluate Q Click here to continue
with this example. |
