Chapter 10, Problem 10.4.32P
Two identical, simply supported beams AB and CD are placed so that they cross each other at their midpoints (sec figure). Before the uniform load is applied, the beams just touch each other at the crossing point.
Determine the maximum bending moments (mab)max* and (MCD)max beams AB and CD, respectively, due to the uniform load if the intensity of the load is q = 6.4 kN/m and the length of each beam is L = 4 m.
