Currently Playing: PSAD Refresher 68: Maximum Stresses on a Railroad Tie | Past CELE Question

SITUATION: The square timber is used as a railroad tie. It carries two uniformly distributed loads of 48 kN each. The reaction from the ground is distributed uniformly over the length of the tie. 1. Determine the smallest allowable dimension b (mm) if the working stress in shear is 1.0 MPa. A. 165 C. 185 B. 175 D. 190 2. Find the location (m) of the maximum bending moment from the left end. A. 0.5 C. 0.7 B. 0.6 D. 1.2 3. Determine the smallest allowable dimension b (mm) if the working stress in flexure is 6 MPa. A. 16.5 C. 17.0 B. 18.0 D. 18.5 Thanks for watching!
