I have this 6061-T6 aluminum I beamit is 46' long total with 31' of it cantilevered out over a ledgeHow much weight could this beam support of the free end until failure.12.00 tall x 7.00quot; wide, 11.672 lb/ft, Moment of inertia is 255.57, flange is .47quot;, web is .29quot; thick ( it is a standard AL assoc beam)Using 5 to build a cantilevered boathouse.Thanks
I really don't think you are sick dear.my temp, usually runs around 97, that is normal for me! Maybe you are like that also! Just drink some juice and water, and get enough to eat! Rest.and tomorrow you should feel better! love Judy
Lots of females have low temperaturesMine is usually 97 tooAt least the first part of my menstrual cycleAfter you ovulate, about day 13-17 of your cycle, your temperature will go up to about 97.8 or 98If you still feel sick tomorrow, see your doctor! An exam and a blood test will answer all your questionsFeel better soon, Julia! :)
One usually doesn't really consider the fail point per se, the yield point is more important when considering strength, though with 6061-T6 the two aren't all that far apartFor real structures deflection must also be considered and deflection if often the limiting factor, Since one normally does not design for failure, I'm doing some guesstimating, but I think 10,000 lb uniformly distributed will very probably break your beamIf one considers deflection, as a rough estimate, around a thousand lb(including the weight of the beam, so closer to 600 lblive load) is about all that would be acceptableSince the 7 wide x 31' cantilever beam has a surface area of about 18ft^2 the (approximate) allowable live load would be 33psf, which is lower than normally used for a floor, maybe ok for a roof if you don't have heavy snow, but your 5 beams 7 gives less than a 3ft wide structure, which is not much of a roof (an impressive diving board though) To summarize, 31 ft is one hell of a cantilever for your beams
