A masonry terrace of 65mm thick concrete surface with 35mm thick cement tiles rest on 100mmx 200mmtimber spaced at 250mm on centers acting as simple beam with effective span of 3.8 meters. Weight of woodis7.5Kn/M^3 and masonry to be 18KN/m^3. Ew = 13.8GPa. Given:
Allowable stresses for bending = 12 MPa
For shear parallel to the grain = 0.9 MPa
Deflection = 1/360 of span
a. Determine the uniform load it could support with respect to bending.
