Save. Eggs in the microwave usually spell disaster -- there's nothing like cleaning molten egg yolks out of the microwave -- or, for the very unfortunate, out of your hair -- to get the day started. Surprisingly, you have to bend a golden rule of microwaving -- using aluminum foil -- to soft-boil an egg proper.
The gymnast performs a choreographed routine of up to 90 seconds in length consisting of leaps, acrobatic skills, somersaults, turns and dance elements on a padded beam. The beam is 125 centimetres (4 ft 1 in) from the ground, 500 centimetres (16 ft 5 in) long, and 10 centimetres (3.9 in) wide. This stationary object can also be adjusted, it can be raised higher or lower. The event requires balance, flexibility, grace, poise, and strength.
Step 6 Calculate the shear strength of the selected beam, and check that the beam will support more shear load than is applied. Example #1 Select the lightest W-beam that will support a uniformly distrib-uted load of 3 kip/ft. on a simply-supported span of 20 ft.and de-flect no more than 0.6 inches. The beam is rolled high-strength, low-alloy steel (HSLA). Steps 1-4 The first few steps are identical to Example #1 because the beam loading and length are the same.ted load of 3 kip/ft. on a simply-supported span of 20 ft. and de-flect no more than 0.6 inches.
