This document provides the solutions to three problems from a quiz on transverse shear stresses in beams. The first two problems involve calculating the shear stress at a given location and finding the maximum shear stress in a T-beam subjected to a 4000 N shear force. The third problem is to calculate the shear stress 75 mm from the top of a hollow wood beam carrying a 25,000 N shear force.

MOOC – “Mechanics of Materials III”

Section Four Quiz Solution

Problem 1) A cross section of a T-beam shown below is subjected to a constant shear


force of 4000 N. Assume the beam acts as a linear elastic material.
Solve for the transverse shear stress 100 mm from the bottom of the beam’s cross section.
Problem 2) A cross section of a T-beam shown below is subjected to a constant shear
force of 4000 N. Assume the beam acts as a linear elastic material.
Solve for the maximum transverse shear stress and its location.
Problem 3) A hollow wood beam cross section is subjected to a constant shear force of
25,000 N. Assume the beam acts as a linear elastic material.
Solve for the transverse shear stress 75 mm from the top of the beam’s cross section.
