Extracted text: A timber beam having a simple span to carry a uniform load of "W" KN/m over its entire span. It has a width of 100 mm and a depth of 300 mm. Use Allowable Working Stress Bending (Parallel to Grain) Shear (Parallel to the Grain) Fb = 8.27 MPa v = 0.70 MPa - W Investigate the maximum possible value of Length and Weight that may be supported by the beam.
