Determine the minimum beam depth


A beam that lies horizontal is subject to vertical loads resulting in maximum moment of 431 kn.m. The cross section of the beam is rectangular with the base width of 72 mm. If the yield strength of the beam material is 410 Mpa determine the minimum beam depth(height of th cross section) that gives a factor safety of 2. Give answear to the nearest mm.
