An aluminum cantilever beam of length L 5 0.65 m carries a distributed load, which includes its own weight, of intensity q/2 at A and q at B. The beam cross section has a width of 50 mm and a height of 170 mm. Allowable bending stress is 95 MPa and allowable shear stress is 12 MPa. The permissible value of load inten- sity q is approximately:

(A) 110 kN/m

(B) 122 kN/m

(C) 130 kN/m

(D) 139 kN/m


(C) 130 kN/m
