Project Title

“Sustainable Design and Stress Analysis of Beams: Evaluating Shear Force, Bending Moment, and Material Efficiency for Resilient and Low-Carbon Urban Infrastructure”

Project Objective

The goal of this project is to analyze the shear force, bending moment, shear stress, and bending stress in beams under various loading conditions while considering the implications of sustainable design for urban infrastructure. Students will also explore how material selection, beam geometry, and efficient resource usage can contribute to resilient, low-carbon urban construction aligned with SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities.

Task Outline

Shear Force and Bending Moment Analysis

Objective: Derive shear force and bending moment diagrams for different types of beams (simply supported, cantilever, etc.) under various loading conditions (point loads, distributed loads, etc.). Please refer to Table 1.
- You are required to select ONE (1) of the beams in the multi-storey building. (Please provide the C&S drawing of the building).
- The selected element must be different from other groups and throughout the sections.
Tasks:
- Calculate shear force and bending moment.
- Construct shear force and bending moment diagrams for each loading condition.
- Compare the shear and bending moment results for different loading scenarios and beam configurations.
Shear Stress and Bending Stress Calculation

Objective: Calculate the shear stress and bending stress at critical points along the beam. (You may decide your beam cross section & dimension).

Tasks:
- Calculate stress distributions across different beam sections.
- Identify locations where the maximum shear stress and bending stress occur (e.g., at supports, mid-span, etc.).
- Create stress distribution diagrams to visualize shear and bending stresses across the beam cross-section.
Sustainability and Material Efficiency

Objective: Investigate how sustainable materials and efficient design can impact the structural performance of beams and contribute to sustainable urban infrastructure.
Tasks:
- Analyze the effect of using sustainable materials (e.g., recycled steel, eco-friendly concrete) on shear force, bending moment, and stress distributions.
- Evaluate the material efficiency by comparing the performance of beams made from traditional materials (e.g., steel) vs. sustainable alternatives (e.g., recycled steel, bamboo).
- Discuss the environmental impact of material choices, considering factors like carbon footprint and resource consumption.
Resilience of Infrastructure

Objective: Explore how shear and bending stresses in beams affect the resilience of urban infrastructure, especially in areas prone to natural disasters.

Tasks:
- Investigate the influence of dynamic loads (e.g., seismic forces, wind) on shear force and bending moment in beams.
- Study how structural resilience is impacted by shear and bending stresses in earthquake-resistant or storm-resistant beam designs.
- Suggest improvements to enhance beam performance for resilient urban infrastructure.
Final Report and Recommendations

Objective: Compile findings into a comprehensive report that integrates both technical analysis and sustainable design considerations.

Tasks:
- Present the shear force, bending moment, shear stress, and bending stress results with clear diagrams and calculations.
- Discuss how the chosen materials and design choices align with SDG 11’s goal of promoting sustainable, resilient, and low-carbon infrastructure.
- Provide recommendations for improving urban infrastructure by optimizing beam design and material usage for sustainability and resilience.

Deliverables

Technical Calculations and Diagrams:
- Shear force and bending moment diagrams.
- Shear stress and bending stress calculations with distribution diagrams.
Sustainability Analysis:
- Comparison of traditional vs. sustainable materials in terms of shear force, bending moment, and stress distribution.
Report:
- A detailed report summarizing the analysis, findings, and recommendations, linking the results to SDG 11’s goals of sustainable and resilient cities.
