Consider a simple supported beam subjected to the load shown. The beam has a solid square cross-section with edge "a", and made of steel alloy having a yielding tensile and compressive strength of oy = 400 MPa. Determine its minimum required edge "a" for a factor of safety against yielding FS = 2.5. The area moment of inertia of that section about its neutral axis N.A. is INA = b.h3/12. 3 kN 2 kN/m 6 m +
