Strength Of Materials

Direction: A simply supported beam of span length 6 m and 75 mm diameter carries a uniformly distributed load of 1.5 kN/m.

  1. What is the maximum value of bending stress?
    1. 162.98 MPa
    2. 325.95 MPa
    3. 625.95 MPa
    4. 651.90 MPa
Correct Option: A

Bending stress = (Maximum load × distance)

σb =
or Bending moment
Section modulus

σb =
9 × 10³(Nm)
= 211.26 MPa
π/32 × (0.075)³

Hence closest option is 162.98 MPa
