A timber frame for a restaurant has a secondary column supported by a main beam as shown in Figure 4b. The restaurant is in Perth, Western Australia. The main beam is seasoned Brush Box, grade F27, with a cross-section of 240x45mm. The critical load case for bearing and shear is 1.2G+1.5Q, where Q is due to long-term live loading (5 months duration). a. Determine the bearing strength of the main beam. b. Determine the shear strength of the main beam. >75 >75 45 Ĵ 240 45 125 DETAIL A
