nter of line of the force is9 feet, therefore the stress at B = 300 X 9 = 2700 lb. The stress throughout the length of a beam fixed atone end and loaded at the other is not uniform. Thatis, the stress varies at different parts of the beam. The intensity of the stress is greatest at the point… … Fig. 121 To Find the Stress in Foot Pounds of any Sec-tion of a Beam Rule. Multiply the load by its distance from thesection. For instance, it is required to find the stress ata section 5 feet from the free end of a beam from where aload of 100 pounds is suspended. (Fig. 122.) Thus 100 X 5 = 500…
