What is an Ultimate Moment?

An ultimate moment is a measure of the total moment acting on a beam at its maximum capacity. It helps in determining the beam's strength.

Example Calculations

Example 1:

Assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ Mu = 10 \times 6000 \times \left(12 - \frac{4}{2}\right) = 10 \times 6000 \times 10 = 600,000 \text{ in-lb} \]

The ultimate moment is 600,000 in-lb.

Example 2:

Assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ Mu = 20 \times 30 \times \left(200 - \frac{80}{2}\right) = 20 \times 30 \times 160 = 96,000 \text{ N-mm} \]

The ultimate moment is 96,000 N-mm.
