Steel Design Booster Quiz-3

A wire of 2mm diameter is wound round a shaft of 2m diameter. What is the maximum shear stress developed in the wire? Assume no applied tensile force on the wire (Take, E = 1 × 10⁵ N/mm²)

For a beam of rectangular section under bending, the shear stress across its depth varies:

For a simply supported beam of dead load 10 kN/m and span 8m having triangular cross section as shown below, if a uniformly distributed live load of 20 kN/m is applied on the beam then the maximum shear stress in the beam will be

For a rectangular beam of 4 m long with 100 mm wide and 200 mm deep, it carries a shear force of 100 IN. What is the maximum shear stress () due to the bending of rectangular section?

A beam of 100 mm and 1000 mm square cross-sectional is placed such that its neutral axis coincides with its diagonal. It is subjected to shear force (F) of 5 kN. The maximum shear stress is:

Consider a simply supported beam of length, 50h with a rectangular cross-section of depth ‘h’ and with 2h. the beam carries a vertical point load ‘P’ at it mid-point the ratio of the maximum shear stress to the maximum bending stress in the beam is

A beam of triangular cross-section is subjected to a shear force of 50 kN. The base width of the section is 250 mm and the height is 200 mm. The beam is placed with its base horizontal. The shear stress at neutral axis will be nearly

An I-section of a beam is shown in the figure below. If the shear stress at point P, which is very close to the bottom of the flange, is 16 MPa, the shear stress at the point Q close to the flange is_________.
