Find a beam cross section that is not symmetric with respect to the horizontal axis nor the vertical axis. Using 3 boards or more to construct a plank for a pirate ship. The factor of safety is 3 between the maximum tensile stress that occurs in the plank and the elastic limit of yellow poplar= 10.9 Gpa. Only poplar members with 1/4" x 4" cross sectional dimensions may be used. If your design exceeds this limit, revise the cross section. Also determine the location of the shear center.
