CHAPTER 6 Bending
material 1, the cross section will look like that shown in Fig. 639f. Here
the width of material 2 has been changed to b1 = nb, where n = E2>E1.
Note that in this case the transformation factor n must be less than one
since E1 7 E2. In other words, we need less of the stiffer material to
support a given moment.
Once the beam has been transformed into one having a single material,
the normal-stress distribution over the transformed cross section will be
linear as shown in Fig. 639g or 639h. Consequently, the centroid
(neutral axis) and moment of inertia for the transformed area can be
determined and the flexure formula applied in the usual manner to
determine the stress at each point on the transformed beam. Realize that
the stress in the transformed beam is equivalent to the stress in the same
material of the actual beam. For the transformed material, however, the
stress found on the transformed section has to be multiplied by the
transformation factor n (or n ), since the area of the transformed
material, dA = n dz dy, is n times the area of actual material
dA = dz dy. That is,

IMPORTANT POINTS
Composite beams are made from different materials in order to
efficiently carry a load. Application of the flexure formula
requires the material to be homogeneous, and so the cross section
of the beam must be transformed into a single material if this
formula is to be used to compute the bending stress.
The transformation factor is a ratio of the moduli of the different
materials that make up the beam. Used as a multiplier, it converts
the dimensions of the cross section of the composite beam into a
beam made from a single material so that this beam has the same
strength as the composite beam. Stiff material will thus be
replaced by more of the softer material and vice versa.
Once the stress in the transformed section is determined, it must
be multiplied by the transformation factor to obtain the stress in
the actual beam.

flanges as shown in Fig. 641a. If the allowable normal stress for the steel

the maximum bending moment the beam can support, with and without
the wood reinforcement. Est 200 GPa, Ew 12 GPa. The moment of
