Section B (no workings required). Question 14 Figure Q14 shows a 1 metre long I-beam supported at either end. The symmetric I beam has dimensions 50 x 30 mm for the outer sections, and 25 x 30 mm for the middle section (width x height). The beam has a tensile strength of 300 MPa. Loading the beam in the middle and applying a Factor of Safety of 2.
