A 2 m simply supported UB 305 x 165 x 40 with 200 kN applied 0.4 m from the left support: a short, heavily loaded span where shear matters. The left support carries 160 kN of shear. The shear stress tau = VQ/(It) peaks in the web at the neutral axis, where the bending stress is zero, and is small in the flanges.
