A composite beam consists of a Southern pine [E = 9.0 GPa] timber that is reinforced on its lower surface by a steel [E = 200 GPa] plate. Assume the following dimensions:b1 = 175 mmd = 375 mmb2 = 125 mmt = 16 mmCalculate the distance to the centroid of the transformed section from the bottom surface of the steel plate.

A composite beam consists of a Southern pine [E = 9.0 GPa] timber that is reinforced on its lower surface by a steel [E = 200 GPa] plate. Assume the following dimensions:b1 = 125 mmd = 250 mmb2 = 75 mmt = 14 mmCalculate the distance to the centroid of the transformed section from the bottom surface of the steel plate.
