1. Problem Description
You are hired by Over Arup Sdn. Bhd. to work as a group of four (4) to select a suitable
material and cross-section for the loaded beam shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1
!!
𝑦 = "#$%&' (−𝑥 ( + 2𝐿# 𝑥 ) − 𝐿* 𝑥) (Equation 1)
where 𝑤$ = initial load (kN/cm), 𝐸 = the modulus of elasticity and 𝐼 = the moment of inertia
𝐿 = length of beam (cm), and △ 𝑥 = iteration length change (cm). Refer to Table 1 for the
values of the parameters.
a) As a group member, propose a material and cross-section that could be suitable for
the loaded beam above. Provide theoretical justification for the selection. Compute
the deflection (𝑦), slope (𝜃), moment (𝑀), shear force (𝑉) and loading (𝑤) for the
beam by using numerical method of your selection in Microsoft Excel.
b) Work as a group to perform analysis of the results in a) to find the best material and
cross-section for the beam. Justify the selection.
c) Deliver the accomplishment of the project in paperwork in a template provided.
