Draw the free body diagram of the beam as follow:
Apply force equilibrium condition along axial direction.
Apply force equilibrium condition along vertical direction.
Apply moment equilibrium condition about node A.
Apply the equation for moment of inertia,
, for a hollow rectangle.
Here, the width of the outer rectangle is
, the height of the outer rectangle is
, the width of the inner rectangle is
, and the height of the inner rectangle is
,
Substitute 100 mm for
, 150 mm for
, 90 mm for
, and 140 mm for
.
Apply the equation for area,
, of the rectangle.
Substitute 100 mm for
, 150 mm for
, 90 mm for
, and 140 mm for
.
Apply the formula for static moment of area,
, at point
.
Substitute
for
,
for
,
for
, and
for
.
Apply the formula for shear stress at point A.
Substitute
for
,
for
,
for
, 90 mm for
, and 100 mm for
.
Apply the formula for the normal stress at point A.
Apply the formula for the average normal stress at point A.
Substitute
for
.
Apply the formula for the radius of Mohr’s Circle for point A.
Apply the formula for the principle stresses at point A.
.
Substitute
for
and
for
to calculate the maximum and the minimum principal stresses at point
.
Therefore, the stresses at point
are
and
.
Apply the formula stresses at point B by using Equation 9.10.
Substitute
for
,
for
,
for
,
for
and
for
.
Point
lines on the bottom surface of the boom, so there is no shear stress.
Thus, the stresses at point
are
and
.
