A rectangular cross section beam (A) made of steelconstructed in an industrial building
between two columns which are “X†m apart. The beam is acting as asupport for one end of a pair of crane wheel (B). The distance b/wwheels are “Y†m. The crane is used to lift max. of Z tonnes ofload which is having hook at the centre of crane. Draw shear forceand B.M of all types of beam
diagram of the beam.
Case i) If the crane wheels are positioned at equal distances fromcentre of the beam.
Case ii) If one of the crane wheels is exactly at the centre.
Case iii) If one of the crane wheels comes exactly over acolumn.
Also find the max. bending stresses in the beam for the first caseconsidering the depth (d) as twice the width of the beam.
X =6m,Y =1m ,Z=15 tonnes, Depth (d)=500mm
