Data: B = D = 120 mm, t = 20mm, F = 125 kN

$Find \tau_{max}$

enter image description here

$\mathrm{b}=\mathrm{d}=120-2 \mathrm{t}=120-2 \mathrm{x} 20=80 \mathrm{mm}$

Consider the area above the N.A.

$\left.\text { Shear stress }\left(\tau_{1}\right) \text { at the bottom of flange by taking width ( } \mathrm{b}=120 \mathrm{mm}\right)$

$\tau_{1}=\frac{F A \overline{Y}}{I b}$ …
