question
A W 8 X 28 beam of a length 10 ft is held between immoveable supports. The beam has a modulus of elasticity E = 29,000 ksi and coefficient of thermal expansion . If the temperature of the beam is raised uniformly by an amount , calculate the thermal stress in the beam.<image 1>
Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
A W 8 X 28 beam of a length 10 ft is held between immoveable supports. The beam has a modulus of elasticity E = 29,000 ksi and coefficient of thermal expansion α=6.5×10^(−6)/^(∘)F . If the temperature of the beam is raised uniformly by an amount ΔT=20^(∘)F , calculate the thermal stress σ_(T) in the beam.<image 1>
Original LaTeX notation
A W 8 X 28 beam of a length 10 ft is held between immoveable supports. The beam has a modulus of elasticity E = 29,000 ksi and coefficient of thermal expansion $\alpha=6.5\times10^{-6}/^\circ F$ . If the temperature of the beam is raised uniformly by an amount $\Delta T=20^\circ F$ , calculate the thermal stress $\sigma_{T}$ in the beam.<image 1>subject
