The beam section shown in Fig. P.20.2 has been idealized into an arrangement of direct stress carrying booms and shear stress only carrying panels. If the beam section is subjected to a vertical shear load of 1495 N through its shear centre, booms 1, 4, 5 and 8 each have an area of 200 mm² and booms 2, 3, 6 and 7 each have an area of 250 mm2 determine the shear flow distribution and the position of the shear centre.
